Description
On the basis of Kruskal-Oberman principle plasma stability in relation to flute modes in two configurations of axi-symmetric nonparaxial magnetic field is studied. The first configuration is represented by the near-axial region of two current coils placed at a distance of coil radius (Helmholtz coils). The second configuration is made of multicoil magnetic system and simulates a magnetic field induced when by bounding magnetic flux by high-conductivity shell. Effect of pressure distribution along the force lines on stability is analyzed. It is shown that characteristic of thick nonparaxial magnetic mirrors growth of maximum magnetic field in radius force line is a destabilizing factor. 9 refs.; 5 figs
