Descripción Hardcover. Condición: new. Hardcover. Spheromaks are easily formed, self-organized magnetized plasma configurations that have intrigued plasma physicists. Sometimes called magnetic vortices, magnetic smoke rings, or plasmoids, spheromaks first attracted attention as a possible controlled thermonuclear plasma configuration scheme, but are now known to have many other applications. This text begins with a review of the basic concepts of magnetohydrodynamics and toroidal magnetic configurations, then provides a detailed exposition of the 3D topological concepts underlying spheromak physics, namely magnetic helicity, Taylor relaxation, force-free equilibria, and tilt stability. It then examines spheromak formation techniques, driven and isolated configurations, dynamo concepts, practical experimental issues, diagnostics, and a number of applications. The book concludes by showing how spheromak ideas are closely related to the physics of solar prominences and interplanetary magnetic clouds. A study of spheromaks. It reviews the basic concepts of magnetohydrodynamics and toroidal magnetic configurations, provides a detailed exposition of the 3D topological concepts underlying spheromak physics, and examines spheromak formation techniques.
