Nuclear Energy & Physics | A hydromagnetic macroinstability which sometimes develops in a thin plasma column carrying a strong axial current. If a kink begins to develop in such a column, the magnetic forces on th e inside of the kink become larger than those on the outside, so that in general it tends to grow in magnitude. The column then becomes unstable and undergoes a gross lateral displacement toward the walls of the discharge vessel. Source: European Union. (references) |
