Is a Plasma Diamagnetic?
Classical plasmas in thermodynamic equilibrium should be neither paranor diamagnetic due to the action of the Lorentz force. Magnetic confinement, however, is based on the observed diamagnetism of laboratory plasmas. The apparent paradox is investigated on the basis of the resistive magnetohydrodynamic equations. It is found that, at least in simple plasma configurations, these equations do not...
متن کاملDiamagnetic GAM Drive Mechanism
GAMs oscillate between states of strong rotation and up-down asymmetric plasma compression. Hence, at first glance the natural turbulent drive (or damping) mechanisms for them is either a direct boost of the rotation – via Reynolds stress – or the creation of asymmetric pressure distributions – via transport. However, an up-down asymmetric pressure can also be created by the divergence of the d...
متن کاملDiamagnetic Levitating Rotor
This paper analyzes some basic design aspects for a three phase diamagnetic levitating rotor. A proposed design uses a triangular configuration of magnets for a levitating rotor. A formula for finding a the approximate levitation point of the rotor is given. The proposed system uses three phase alternating current and a nine coil configuration to drive the levitating rotor. For this configurati...
متن کاملRotational Stability of a Diamagnetic Rod
When Faraday identified/named diamagnetism (relative permeability μ < 1) in 1845, he reported in Arts. 2253-2260 of [1] that a glass rod would align itself at right angles to the lines of magnetic field of his laboratory electromagnet. He also noted in Art. 2269 that such object moved “into the positions of weakest magnetic action.” Faraday’s test objects were suspended from a string, but W. Th...
متن کاملA diamagnetic inequality for semigroup differences
The diamagnetic inequality for the magnetic Schrödinger semigroup is extended to the difference of the semigroups of magnetic Schrödinger operators with Neumann and Dirichlet boundary conditions on arbitrary open domains and rather general magnetic vector potentials A and potentials V . In particular, this bound renders moot all the technical issues in the recent proofs of the independence of t...
