Dynamics of a theta pinch discharge in a transverse magnetic field

The suppression of radial hydromagnetic oscillations of a theta pinch plasmoid produced in air has been investigated with magnetic probes and a framing camera. In the presence of essentially static and uniform magnetic bias fields (produced by Helmholtz coils) it was found that the oscillations are...
