Popis: |
The collective free expansion of a magnetized pure electron plasma column along the confining axial magnetic field is experimentally and theoretically investigated. A new hydrodynamic theory for nonlinear plasma wave evolution in a bounded cylinder is described which predicts the experimental results. The plasma free expansion is initially characterized by a self-similar plasma flow resulting in a perturbed density and velocity with no characteristic length scale. |
