Rigid-rotor equilibria of nonneutral plasmas

  • 1. University of Maryland, Department of Physics and Astronomy, College Park, Maryland 20742

Description

A cold, constant-density, cylindrical, nonneutral plasma column confined by a uniform axial magnetic field has equilibria characterized by rigid-rotation frequencies given by theta=1/2ω/subc/1plus-or-minus (1-2ω/subp/ 2/ω/subc/ 2)1/2. Measurements of these fast (+) and slow (-) equilibria are compared with a cold-fluid-theory model of nonneutral plasmas
