Excerpt from Equilibrium Configuration of a Plasma in the Guiding Center Limit
Since we deal only with axially symmetric configurations, it is useful to introduce the cylindrical coordinates (r, 9, z).

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the equilibrium configuration of a plasma in a magnetic field, specifically focusing on the behavior of a plasma with a non-scalar pressure tensor. The author's approach draws inspiration from the guiding center approximation, suggesting that the plasma's pressure tensor is axially symmetric about magnetic field lines. Within this framework, the book establishes a system of equilibrium equations and seeks an additional relation to make the system mathematically determinate. Leveraging a microscopic distribution function derived from the guiding center approximation, the author finds a relation linking the plasma's pressure components and magnetic flux. To solve the equilibrium equations, the book employs simplifying assumptions, including low aspect ratio and low gas-to-magnetic pressure ratio, and uses an iterative technique to obtain explicit solutions. The results are compared with those of a corresponding scalar pressure problem, highlighting the distinctions between the two scenarios. Through its rigorous analysis, the book deepens our understanding of plasma behavior in magnetic fields, providing valuable insights for researchers and practitioners in plasma physics.
