Motion of classical charged particles with magnetic moment in external plane-wave electromagnetic fields

Motion of Charged Particles in Perturbed Magnetic Fields of Tokamak

In this paper we present two Hamiltonian approaches–full and drift–for description of charged particles (e.g. electrons, D + ) in magnetic field of a tokamak. We use a basic magnetic toroidal field configuration with shear plus overlapping island chains creating magnetic ergodic layer. We would like to use this apparatus for solving two physical problems. Firstly for an estimate of generation o...

Equations of motion for spinning particles in external electromagnetic and gravitational fields.

The equations of motion for the position and spin of a classical particle coupled to an external electromagnetic and gravitational potential are derived from an action principle. The constraints insuring a correct number of independent spin components are automatically satisfied. In general the spin is not Fermi-Walker transported nor does the position follow a geodesic, although the deviations...

Motion of charged particles in magnetic fields created by symmetric configurations of wires

In this paper we study the motion of a charged particle in the presence of a magnetic field created by three different systems of wires: an infinite rectilinear filament, a circular wire and the union of both. In the first case we prove that the equations of motion are Liouville integrable and we provide a complete description of the trajectories, which turn out to be of helicoidal type. In the...
