Abstract
Magnetic fields produced by a periodic array of rectangular bars magnetized perpendicular to their lengths have proven to be useful boundaries for plasma containment. Convenient formulas are developed for the computation of the magnetic fields for any choice of parameters. These formulas include not only the configuration which has commonly been used, but some alternate arrangements which can be advantageous for certain applications.This publication has 2 references indexed in Scilit:
