Description

The possibility is being discussed of creating and heating the plasma in 'Tornado' magnetic traps by means of the rotating plasma technique. On account of the particular field geometry of these traps, it is likely that the critical velocity phenomenon of rotating plasmas can be avoided. (Auth.)
