TO THE THEORY OF HIGH-TEMPERATURE PLASMA PINCH

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:4285162

Some systems with plasma pinch stabilization by a longitudinal magnetic field are examined from the standpoint of the possibility of heating the plasma and obtaining thermonuclear reactions. It is assumed that the plasma pinch is toroidal so that there are no losses at electrodes which exist in straight tube discharges. In cases considered the plasma is heated due to the Joule heat and compression of the plasma caused by the constricting currents. (W.D.M.)
