Abstract
A torsional hydromagnetic wave is induced by application of an oscillatory radial electric field to one end of a cylindrical deuterium plasma located in a magnetic mirror field. The wave propagates in the axial direction to the center of the device, where a resonance occurs between the hydromagnetic wave frequency and the local ion cyclotron frequency. Wave magnetic-field measurements indicate that transfer of power from the 1-MW, 8.3-Mc oscillator to the hydromagnetic wave is about 65% efficient, and that more than 90% of the wave energy is transferred out of the wave at the resonance region.
