Plasmas confined by a dipole magnet host a multitude of intriguing and non-trivial
phenomena, whose physics is not completely well understood yet. We investigate the dipole …

This article presents current density profiles due to Lorentz and hydrodynamic forces in the
presence of spatially varying plasma parameters, electrostatic field (⁠ E 0→⁠), and …

A generalization of electrical conductivity in a plasma confined in a dipole magnetic field, in
the presence of temperature anisotropy is presented. The anisotropy governed by the …

This study characterizes spatially varying optical emissions in a compact dipole plasma
device driven at steady-state by continuous mode microwaves. The study is motivated by …

The electron energy distribution function (EEDF) is investigated in a plasma driven at steady

The polytropic index of electrons in a magnetized plasma is experimentally investigated in
the presence of external heating and anisotropic work done on the system by the magnetic …

The creation of an electron space charge in a dipole magnetic trap and the subsequent
injection of positrons have been experimentally demonstrated. Positrons (5 eV) were …

Temperature anisotropy prevails both in laboratory and astrophysical plasma. As a free
energy source, temperature anisotropy has revealed potential solutions to heating and …
