Stirring unmagnetized plasma.
A new concept for spinning unmagnetized plasma is demonstrated experimentally. Plasma is confined by an axisymmetric multicusp magnetic field and biased cathodes are used to drive currents and impart a torque in the magnetized edge. Measurements show that flow viscously couples momentum from the magnetized edge (where the plasma viscosity is small) into the unmagnetized core (where the viscosit...
متن کاملDialysis with Stirring
Substances to be purified by dialysis are placed in collodion bags together with a toy "marble" or a bubble of air. The bags are stoppered and placed in glass tubes of a rocking machine. Distilled water of the desired temperature is circulated through the tubes (around the bags) at a rate of about 8 cc. per minute per bag while the machine is in motion. The rolling of the marbles or bubbles cau...
متن کاملEddy stirring in the Southern Ocean
[1] There is an ongoing debate concerning the distribution of eddy stirring across the Antarctic Circumpolar Current (ACC) and the nature of its controlling processes. The problem is addressed here by estimating the isentropic eddy diffusivity from a collection of hydrographic and altimetric observations, analyzed in a mixing length theoretical framework. It is shown that, typically, is suppres...
متن کاملStirring a Bose–Einstein condensate
By shining a tightly focused laser light on a Bose–Einstein condensate (BEC) and moving the centre of the beam along a spiral path one may stir the BEC and create vortices. It is shown that one can induce rotation of the BEC in the direction opposite to the direction of stirring. When a spoon, stick or another object of a similar shape is used to stir a liquid, the liquid rotates in the directi...
متن کاملMicrowaving and stirring the quantum Hall spaghetti
Two-dimensional (2D) electron materials such as semiconductor quantum wells and graphene form exotic phases when placed in a strong magnetic field and cooled down to low temperatures. The energy spectrum of such systems consists of macroscopically degenerate energy levels (Landau levels) that lead to the rich physics of integral and fractional quantum Hall effects (IQHE and FQHE). Different sta...
