Nonquasineutral current structures in plasmas with a zero net current

A nonquasineutral vortex structure with a zero net current is described that arises as a result of electron drift in crossed magnetic and electric fields, the latter being produced by charge separation on a spatial scale of about the magnetic Debye radius. In such a structure with radius r ~ rB,...

Zusammenfassung:A nonquasineutral vortex structure with a zero net current is described that arises as a result of electron drift in crossed magnetic and electric fields, the latter being produced by charge separation on a spatial scale of about the magnetic Debye radius. In such a structure with radius r ~ rB, the magnetic field maintained by a drift current on the order of the electron Alfven current. The system with closed current that is considered in the present paper can also serve as a model of hot spots in the channel of a Z-pinch.
