Relaxation of Z discharge between electrodes
Abstract
The application to of Taylor's theory to zeta discharged plasma with finite length, which is determined by electrodes made of good conductor, is described. The problem of the impurity ejection from the electrode surfaces until the burn condition of fuel plasma is attained is addressed. The application of the zeta discharge to thermonuclear purposes is examined. The existence of a helical state in the zeta discharge is discussed and the formation of a toroidal configuration by an intense zeta discharge in a casing is considered.
