Description

In the present report we show that the excitation of Alfven waves in cylindrical plasma system may lead to the formation of a new steady-state with helical vortex flow. The flow is a family of mutually contiguous helical vortex tubes. The size of each vortex in the cross-section of the plasma column is of the order of the plasma radius
