Description

The confinement of plasma is usually realised in a Penning discharge and a magnetic mirror. The determination of the loss cone of magnetic mirror in the presence of electric field of Penning discharge is considered. It is shown that the electric field widen the loss cone for ions. The well known relation in the absence of the electric field is reobtained
