Abstract

This paper considers the steady two-dimensional ‘magnetic bottle’ in which a moving, compressible and electrically conducting plasma is confined by a horizontally aligned magnetic field. It is assumed that dissipation by viscosity and resistivity is negligible and that the plasma-magnetic field interface is free from instabilities of all kinds.
