Description
Published in 1958.

This volume is the second to grow out of a Lockheed-sponsored symposium on megnetohydrodynamics, the challenging new branch of physical science that studies how magnetic fields influence and are influenced by the motion of electrically conducting fluids.
The papers in the present volume deal with plasmas rather than with liquid metals. Section One, on kinetic theory, shows how individual orbit analysis of important configurations can be either simplified by the use of adiabatic invariants or bypassed by a modified macroscopic theory.
The use of magnetic fields appears to be the most promising means for confining a hot deuterium plasma long enough to produce controlled thermonuclear power. However, the interface between a plasma and a magnetic field tends to be unstable. In Section Two evidence is presented for such an instability from both pinch effect studies and astrophysical observations.
The tight coupling between magnetic field and plasma makes it possible to transfer energy from one to the other. Section Three shows how high-speed flow can be generated as well as modified by magnetic forces.
This book has been edited by Dr. Rolf K.M. Landshoff, Consulting Scientist, Lockheed Aircraft Corporation, Missile Systems Division.
