Hydromagnetic disturbances of large amplitude in a plasma

  • 1. U.K. Atomic Energy Authority, AERE, Harwell (United Kingdom)

Description

The calculations presented in this paper refer to the collision-free collapse of a plasma containing a magnetic field, since the latter was not included in Rosenbluth's theory. The compressing field is assumed to be in the same direction as the internal field, for the sake of simplicity. The calculations refer to a plane plasma, an approximation that suffices for the early stages of the compression
