The magnetic mirror approach to fusion

Nuclear Fusion, 1987
The magnetic mirror approach to fusion is reviewed in depth. Starting with a brief chronological history of the development of the basic mirror concept, its subsequent evolution into the tandem mirror, the field reversed mirror and other variants is described. Also discussed are the many-faceted aspects of mirror theory, including adiabatic invariants,

Magnetic Moments of Mirror Nuclei

Physical Review, 1961
The sum of the magnetic dipole moments for pairs of mirror nuclei, as calculated with intermediate-coupling functions in the $1p$ shell, is found to be very insensitive to the degree of spin-orbit coupling. This property can be understood as being due to the rotational nature of the wave functions, and can also be interpreted in terms of wave functions

Gasdynamics of a plasma in a multiple-mirror magnetic trap with “point” mirrors

Journal of Applied Mechanics and Technical Physics, 1974
Equations are derived for the gasdynamics of a dense plasma confined by a multiple-mirror magnetic field. The limiting cases of large and small mean free paths have been analyzed earlier: λ ≪ ι0 and λ ≫ ιk, where ι is the length of an individual mirror machine, ι0 is the size of the mirror, and k is the mirror ratio.

Modal dynamics of magnetic-liquid deformable mirrors

Applied Optics, 2014
Magnetic-liquid deformable mirrors (MLDMs) were introduced by our group in 2004 and numerous developments have been made since then. The usefulness of this type of mirror in various applications has already been shown, but experimental data on their dynamics are still lacking.

Stochastic acceleration in a magnetic mirror

Physics Letters A, 1968
Abstract Statistical acceleration rate of a charged particle in a magnetic mirror is derived, correct within a factor of two, for the case when the electric field spectrum spans the spectrum of mirror gyrofrequencies.

Motion of charged particles in an axisymmetric magnetic mirror

Physical Review A, 1986
The basic features of the notion of charged particles in an axisymmetric mirror, when the magnetic field varies sinusoidally along lines of force, is examined and the diffusion rate for the magnetic moment near the loss cone is obtained.
