On axisymmetric double adiabatic MHD equilibria with plasma flow
The stationary equilibrium of an axisymmetric plasma characterized by toroidal and poloidal flows is considered within the framework of ideal double adiabatic magnetohydrodynamic equations. The problem is reduced to a nonlinear partial differential equation for the poloidal magnetic flux function, containing six surface functions, plus a nonlinear algebraic Bernoulli equation defining the plasm...
متن کاملOn non-axisymmetric magnetic equilibria in stars
In previous work stable approximately axisymmetric equilibrium configurations for magnetic stars were found by numerical simulation. Here I investigate the conditions under which more complex, non-axisymmetric configurations can form. I present numerical simulations of the formation of stable equilibria from turbulent initial conditions and demonstrate the existence of non-axisymmetric equilibr...
متن کاملECOM: A fast and accurate solver for toroidal axisymmetric MHD equilibria
We present ECOM (Equilibrium solver via COnformal Mapping), a fast and accurate fixed boundary solver for toroidally axisymmetric magnetohydrodynamic equilibria with or without a toroidal flow. ECOM combines conformal mapping and Fourier and integral equation methods on the unit disk to achieve exponential convergence for the poloidal flux function aswell as its first and second partial derivat...
متن کاملNon-neutral plasma equilibria with weak axisymmetric magnetic perturbations
The effect of weak axisymmetric magnetic and/or electrostatic perturbations on the equilibrium of a non-neutral plasma in a Malmberg-Penning trap is analyzed. Analytical and semianalytical solutions for the potential variations inside the trap are found in a paraxial limit of the perturbations for various radial density profiles of the plasma, including the case of global thermal equilibrium. I...
متن کاملStability transitions for axisymmetric relative equilibria
In the presence of noncompact symmetry, the stability of relative equilibria under momentum-preserving perturbations does not generally imply robust stability under momentum-changing perturbations. For axisymmetric relative equilibria of Hamiltonian systems with Euclidean symmetry, we investigate different mechanisms of stability: stability by energy–momentum confinement, KAM, and Nekhoroshev s...
