The modes having azimuthal number $m = 1$ are considered. The results are presented for the entire acceptable range of electron densities, magnetic field strengths, for different values of the charge neutralization coefficient. The Cherenkov resonance condition of an ion with a diocotron mode having a finite value of the longitudinal wave vector was studied. The characteristics of resonant low-frequency electron–ion instability caused by relative azimuth motion of electrons and ions in crossed fields and by the anisotropy of the distribution function of ions are discussed. Ions are created by ionization of residual gas in the plasma volume. Due to the anisotropy, instability occurs not only in the vicinity of the resonance, but also outside it. For typical values of plasma parameters in experiments, estimations of the frequency growth rate are given. A conclusion is drawn that this instability can be the cause of the low-frequency oscillations observed in linear devices with non-neutral plasma produced in an electron beam channel.","PeriodicalId":16846,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Plasma Physics","volume":"7 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.5,"publicationDate":"2024-02-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139761027","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We have developed a technique that can measure electron heating rates in ultracold neutral plasmas (UNPs) with $sim 10,%$ precision while simultaneously referencing the measurement to a calibrated amount of heating. This technique uses a sequence of applied electric fields in four sections: to control the ratio of electrons to ions in the UNP; to provide a time for the application of fields that cause electron heating and subsequent thermalization of the electrons after the application of those fields; to extract electrons from the UNP using a method sensitive to electron temperature that allows the measurement of electron heating; and to extract the remaining electrons to measure the total electron (and therefore ion) number. The primary signal used to measure the heating rate is the measurement of the number of electrons that escape in the third section of the experiment as a larger number of escaping electrons indicates a larger amount of heating. We illustrate the use of this technique by measuring electron heating caused by high-frequency radiofrequency (RF) fields. In addition to the main technique, several subtechniques to calibrate the electron temperature, electron density, amount of heating and applied RF field amplitude were developed as well.","PeriodicalId":16846,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Plasma Physics","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.5,"publicationDate":"2024-02-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139760853","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

These are more flexible than the Elsässer variables, because they also allow us to track waves with phase speeds different than the Alfvén speed. We rewrite the magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) equations with these $Q$ -variables. We consider also the linearised version of the resulting MHD equations in a uniform plasma, and recover the classical Alfvén waves, but also separate the fast and slow magnetosonic waves into upward- and downward-propagating waves. Moreover, we show that the $Q$ -variables may also track the upward- and downward-propagating surface Alfvén waves in a non-uniform plasma, displaying the power of our generalisation. In the end, we lay the mathematical framework for driving solar wind models with a multitude of wave drivers.","PeriodicalId":16846,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Plasma Physics","volume":"14 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.5,"publicationDate":"2024-02-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139761026","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Beam dynamics includes ion–gas collisions (with a balance of cooling and diffusion effects), acceleration and deceleration and radiofrequency confinement, which can be supplemented by static magnetic field effects. Insertion of a prototype RFQC in the solenoid of the Eltrap machine is also discussed here, with innovations in beam extraction and in modelling, now also based on stochastic equations. Practical consideration on gas pumping and voltage distribution are also included. Typical limits of RFQC are discussed, with special attention to the extracted beam root mean square emittance, which is shown to strongly depend not only on cooler parameters, but also on extraction optics.","PeriodicalId":16846,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Plasma Physics","volume":"5 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.5,"publicationDate":"2024-02-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139760851","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The helical mirror confinement is effective when the ion mean free path is equal to the helix pitch length. This condition can be satisfied in hot collisionless plasma only by anomalous scattering. The wave, which scatters the passing ions, is considered to receive energy from the trapped ions. The oscillations of the electric field in the helically symmetric plasma were observed in experiment. The oscillations have both regular highly correlated and chaotic components. The dependency of the regular component frequency on the Alfvén velocity is linear for $V_{rm A} < 2.8 times 10^6 text {m} text {s}^{-1}$ and constant for higher values. It is shown experimentally that the condition for the wave to be in phase resonance with the trapped ions is satisfied in a specific region of the plasma column for the highly correlated component. The amplitude of the chaotic component (up to $3 text {V} text {cm}^{-1}$ ) is higher than the estimated electric field required for the ion scattering.","PeriodicalId":16846,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Plasma Physics","volume":"16 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.5,"publicationDate":"2024-02-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139760854","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
