Abstract
An approximate theory on the diffusion loss of a plasma through the holes in a magnetic bottle is developed and applied to two cases; coaxial magnetic mirrors faclng each other, and a quadrupole bottle. The problem of runaway electrons in plasma Is discussed. The wave equation of electromagnetic oscillations is derived and applied to three confinements of a cylindrical plasma by magnetic fields; Bx I/ theta pinch in which (e/mc) Bx>> omega I, B theta pinch; and a combined Bx I theta and Ix theta B theta pinch.
