The ideal Chew–Goldberger–Low (CGL) plasma equations, including the double adiabatic conservation laws for the parallel ($p_\parallel$) and perpendicular pressure ($p_\perp$), are investigated using a Lagrangian variational principle. An Euler–Poincaré variational principle is developed and the non-canonical Poisson bracket is obtained, in which the non-canonical variables consist of the mass flux ${\boldsymbol {M}}$ , the density $\rho$ , the entropy variable $\sigma =\rho S$ and the magnetic induction ${\boldsymbol {B}}$. Conservation laws of the CGL plasma equations are derived via Noether's theorem. The Galilean group leads to conservation of energy, momentum, centre of mass and angular momentum. Cross-helicity conservation arises from a fluid relabelling symmetry, and is local or non-local depending on whether the gradient of $S$ is perpendicular to ${\boldsymbol {B}}$ or otherwise. The point Lie symmetries of the CGL system are shown to comprise the Galilean transformations and scalings. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
