This paper presents a new method of determining the longitudinal energy from the rotation of a plasma jet in a transverse magnetic field. The authors consider the motion of a plasma jet with total current and ion current in a transverse magnetic field. The mass per unit length is related to the ion current and the longitudinal proton velocity by the expression M approx. = m /sub p/ I /sub p/ /eV. The paper shows two profiles of a jet with proton current of 0.6 A and total current of -1A, deviated by magnetic fields of +38 and -38 G.
