Chaotic magnetic fields in Vlasov-Maxwell equilibria
- Saha Institute of Nuclear Physics, I/AF Bidhannagar, Calcutta 700 064 (India)
Stationary solutions of Vlasov-Maxwell equations are obtained by exploiting the invariants of single particle motion leading to linear or nonlinear functional relations between current and vector potential. For a specific combination of invariants, it is shown that Vlasov-Maxwell equilibria have an associated Hamiltonian that exhibits chaos.
