Abstract
The ‘‘flux‐tube’’ model originated by Morozov is a very simple and numerically efficient method for simulating ion motion in plasma filters. In order to test its utility as a design tool, we compare the predictions of the model to recent experimental measurements of plasma flow in both straight and curved solenoids.This publication has 13 references indexed in Scilit:
