内容記述 | A class of two-dimensional drift-free fields, somewhat resembling the configuration found in the geomagnetic tail, is described; several proofs of the drift-free property are given, including some that suggest that the property of vanishing net drift might extend to nonadiabatic orbits. A general criterion for identifying drift-free fields was developed, and a case of motion in a nearly drift-free field was also investigated. The theory was applied to the plasma sheet in the earth's magnetotail, and observational evidence is presented suggesting that the magnetic field there does approach a drift-free configuration. |
