Abstract
The conventional rigid rotation model of thermal equilibrium does not apply to a toroidal non-neutral plasma trap; the nonuniformity of the magnetic field produces an inhomogeneous flow. For sufficiently large ωc/ωp (ωc: cyclotron frequency; ωp: plasma frequency), the flow can be approximated by the E×B drift velocity. The toroidal equilibrium of an electron plasma has been analyzed for a rather complex geometry of magnetic shear configuration.
