Elliptic and hyperelliptic magnetohydrodynamic equilibria

چکیده
The present study is a continuation of a previous one on ”hyperelliptic” axisymmetric equilibria started in [Tasso and Throumoulopoulos, Phys. Plasmas 5, 2378 (1998)]. Specifically, some equilibria with incompressible flow nonaligned with the magnetic field and restricted by appropriate side conditions like ”isothermal” magnetic surfaces, ”isodynamicity” or P +B/2 constant on magnetic surfaces are found to be reducible to elliptic integrals. The third class recovers recent equilibria found in [Schief, Phys. Plasmas 10, 2677 (2003)]. In contrast to field aligned flows, all solutions found here have nonzero toroidal magnetic field on and elliptic surfaces near the magnetic axis. PACS: 52.30.Bt, 47.65.+a, 02.30.Jr

Ideal magnetohydrodynamic equilibria with helical symmetry and incompressible flows
A recent study on axisymmetric ideal magnetohydrodynamic equilibria with incompressible flows [H. Tasso and G. N. Throumoulopoulos, Phys. Plasmas 5, 2378 (1998)] is extended to the generic case of helically symmetric equilibria with incompressible flows. It is shown that the equilibrium states of the system under consideration are governed by an elliptic partial differential equation for the he...
متن کاملElliptic curves with weak coverings over cubic extensions of finite fields with odd characteristic
In this paper, we present a classification of elliptic curves defined over a cubic extension of a finite field with odd characteristic which have coverings over the finite field therefore subjected to the GHS attack. The densities of these weak curves, with hyperelliptic and non-hyperelliptic coverings, are then analyzed respectively. In particular, we show, for elliptic curves defined by Legen...
متن کاملNonlinear axisymmetric resistive magnetohydrodynamic equilibria with toroidal flow
The equilibrium of a resistive axisymmetric plasma with purely toroidal flow surrounded by a conductor is investigated within the framework of the nonlinear magnetohydrodynamic theory. It is proved that a) the poloidal current density vanishes and b) apart from an idealized case the pressure profile should vanish on the plasma boundary. For the cases of isothermal magnetic surfaces, isentropic ...
متن کامل0 Se p 20 07 Exceptional Points in the Elliptic - Hyperelliptic Locus
An exceptional point in the moduli space of compact Riemann surfaces is a unique surface class whose full automorphism group acts with a triangular signature. A surface admitting a conformal involution with quotient an elliptic curve is called elliptic-hyperelliptic; one admitting an anticonformal involution is called symmetric. In this paper, we determine, up to topological conjugacy, the full...
متن کاملHyperelliptic Pairings
We survey recent research on pairings on hyperelliptic curves and present a comparison of the performance characteristics of pairings on elliptic curves and hyperelliptic curves. Our analysis indicates that hyperelliptic curves are not more efficient than elliptic curves for general pairing applications.
