Bifurcation analysis of an electrically driven fluid layer
- The equilibrium states of electrically conducting fluids or plasmas have been a subject of intense study for a long time, motivated in particular by the interest in controlled thermonuclear fusion, as well as that in space and astrophysical phenomena such as plasma loops in the solar corona. If high temperatures prohibit solid walls, a conducting fluid can be held together by the action of an electric current passing through it with the pressure gradients being balanced by the Lorentz force. The resultant configuration is known as a pinch. In this paper we report on studies of the pinch in the geometry of a plane sheet.
