Abstract

By investigating the conservation laws of guiding-center mechanics, an extension of quasi-helical static magnetohydrodynamic equilibria to incorporate strong flow is obtained, subject to suitable ordering assumptions. Such equilibria correspond to self-consistent Fokker-Planck kinetic equilibria in the presence of a quasi-helical magnetic field. The effect of small symmetry-breaking contributions in the magnetic field is investigated.
