Abstract

In this paper we consider a low-β plasma confined in a magnetic field in which, in contrast to the F.L.R. ordering, for the core region the electrical force is more important than the pressure gradient force (M.H.D. ordering). Non-ideal M.H.D. equations are obtained from the moment equations. Considerations concerning the outer region result, for example, in boundary conditions for the oscillations in the core region. We investigate the stability of a cylindrical plasma column for some special cases and the agreement with experiment is discussed.
