摘要: The development of the m = 0 instability in a Z pinch was followed and measured growth rates compared with 2D MHD simulations. Where is valid, agree well simulation. ions are magnetized, i.e., where ion-cyclotron frequency smaller than ion-collision ratio ion Larmor radius to order 0.1, rate expected by factor 2.5. This as predicted finite-Larmor-radius theory. product wave number ka approximately 2pi same for all conditions. Perturbations large 30% were observed; no nonlinear saturation evident.
