Plasmas• A plasma is a gas of charged particles -- Generally ionized atoms
Gas: potential energy of a typical particle due to its nearest neighbor is much smaller than its kinetic energy (Compared with condensed matter).
• Fourth state of matter -- Classical gas but E-M dominated – Binding energies– 99% of known universe (25% of total mass) is in plasma state
• Usually consider plasmas to be quasi-neutralne ~ Zni (or sum over ion mixture, both positive and negative if present)
• How would you tell difference between a hot gas and plasma? • What is the difference in interparticle forces in gas and plasmas?• Conceptual simplicity belies complex phenomenology:
many dimensionless parameters; few useful approximations

Description of a plasma§ Collection of single, free charges
(Most basic model, useful as first approximation forinteraction with EM waves)
§ Fluid (MagnetoHydroDynamics)§ Two-fluid -- Ion and electron fluids separately§ Kinetic -- Modified Boltzmann Equation for each species
§ Bewildering combinations of fluid and kinetic (e.g. fluid ions with kinetic electrons, etc. or fluid equations with kinetic corrections, etc. )

Collisions in Plasmas• Plasmas are conductors, often excellent, but not perfect. • Collisions are infrequent and may often be neglected, but• Collisions are process that determines plasma resistivity, as
elsewhere.• Collisions include electron-neutral, but often only the electron-
ion “Rutherford” cross-section matters. (Recall the total cross-section diverges. A subtle calculation is required to limit range of 1/r potential and properly treat small-angle scattering that causes minimal resistivity.)
• For a hydrogen plasma, the result is the Spitzer resistivity:

Real Plasma with n, T ~ p
B lines must lie in isobaric surfaces.Since , only possible if isobaric surfaces are topological tori. Magnetic field lines must form nested tori.
Equilibrium must also be stable. Much more complex considerations (Shafronov), establish that the only stable, toroidally-symmetric equilibria must have a toroidal plasma current in addition to the toroidal magnetic field, a tokamak.
Equilibrium:
€
∇p = j×B
€
∇ •B = 0
IsobarsNote that the magnetic field lines lie in the nested surfaces and will be helices resulting from the combination of toroidal field and the field from the plasma current.
