Low Frequence Modes Associated with Drift Motions in Inhomogeneous Plasmas.

摘要

The basic theory, linear and nonlinear, of low frequency vortex modes in inhomogeneous plasmas is reviewed. Special emphasis is put on the basic physics of processes important for the confinement and stability of magnetically confined plasmas such as effects of curvature drift and trapped particles.
