Abstract:
We report the development of a coaxial radio frequency plasma source capable of producing pulsed plasmas of moderately high density (10(13)-10(14) cm(-3)). This device may be useful either as a general purpose laboratory plasma source or as an auxilliary source for a variety of fusion applications, such as providing target plasmas for mirror machines or producing cold plasma blankets to help isolate the hot plasma core of a toroidal plasma from the walls.

Energy Stored In A Coaxial Cable
In the simplest form, a coaxial cable can be represented by two long hollow concentric cylinders in which the current flows in opposite directions. The magnetic field inside and outside the coaxial cable is determined by using Ampère's law. The magnetic field inside...
