General theory of magnetically insulated electron flow
Journal Article
·
· Phys. Fluids; (United States)
A theory of magnetically insulated flow is developed where two- or three-dimensional spatial variation and temporal variation are allowed as long as the spatial variations in the flow direction are over many electron gyrolengths and temporal variations are over many electron gyroperiods. These criteria are met in most flows of interest. The theory is based upon describing the electron dynamics in terms of parameters which are constants of motion in one-dimensional, time-independent flows.
