Project Sherwood: Orientation Lectures presented at Oak Ridge National Laboratory, November-December, 1955 - VIll. Stability
- Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL), Oak Ridge, TN (United States)
The interaction of a hydrodynamic fluid with electromagnetic fields forms the new and interesting subject of hydromagnetics. Equilibrium solutions of hydromagnetic fluids are discussed, then normal mode analysis of the time-dependent equations of motion of the plasma is discussed, followed by variational methods for more complicated geometries. Stabilization of the Stellarator is considered. A few selected topics are briefly described, including Heating Instability in the Stellarator, Rayleigh's Principle and Rotation, and theories with a Tensor Pressure.
