论文摘要
本文提供了有关理解设备物理学的最新进展的观点,在该物理学的物理学上,外部磁场垂直于放电电流。该配置会产生一个强大的电场,该电场可加速离子。该设置的许多应用包括为航天器推进的推力产生,以及在等离子体质量分离装置中的物种分离。这些EXB等离子体受到等离子壁相互作用效应以及各种微型和宏观不稳定性的影响,在许多设备中,我们观察到异常运输的出现。该观点介绍了当前对这些现象物理学的理解,最先进的计算结果,确定了关键问题,并提出了未来研究的方向
This paper provides perspectives on recent progress in the understanding of the physics of devices where the external magnetic field is applied perpendicularly to the discharge current. This configuration generates a strong electric field, which acts to accelerates ions. The many applications of this set up include generation of thrust for spacecraft propulsion and the separation of species in plasma mass separation devices. These ExB plasmas are subject to plasma-wall interaction effects as well as various micro and macro instabilities, and in many devices, we observe the emergence of anomalous transport. This perspective presents the current understanding of the physics of these phenomena, state-of-the-art computational results, identifies critical questions, and suggests directions for future research
