Magnetic holes in plasmas close to the mirror instability

Non-propagating magnetic hole solutions in anisotropic plasmas near the mirror instability threshold are investigated in numerical simulations of a fluid model that incorporates linear Landau damping and finite Larmor radius corrections calculated in the gyrokinetic approximation. This FLR-Landau fl...
