1 Chapter Motion of Charged Particles in Fields Plasmas are complicated because motions of electrons and ions are determined by the electric and magnetic fields but also change the fields by the currents they carry. For now we shall ignore the second part of the problem and assume that Fields are Prescribed. Even so, calculating the motion of a charged particle can be quite hard. Equation of motion: dv m q ( E + v B ) (.1) }{{ dt} charge E field velocity B field }{{} Rate of change of momentum Lorentz Force Have to solve this differential equation, to get position r and velocity (v ṙ) given E(r, t), B(r, t). Approach: Start simple, gradually generalize..1 Uniform B field, E 0. mv qv B (.).1.1 Qualitatively in the plane perpendicular to B: Accel. is perp to v so particle moves in a circle whose radius r L is such as to satisfy Ω is the angular (velocity) frequency v r L mr L Ω m q v B (.3) 1st equality shows Ω v /r L (r L v /Ω) 17

(.4) m q B angular velocity Ω m the Cyclotron Frequency (.5) v and radius r l Ω the Larmor Radius. (.6).1. By Vector Algebra Particle Energy is constant. proof : take v. Eq. of motion then d 1 mv.v mv qv.(v B) 0. (.7) dt Parallel and Perpendicular motions separate. v constant because accel ( v B) is perpendicular to B. Perpendicular Dynamics: Take B in ẑ direction and write components mv x qv y B, mv y qv x B (.8) Hence Solution: v x v cos Ωt Substitute back: ( qb qb ) v x v y v x Ω v x (.9) m m (choose zero of time) m q v y v x v sin Ωt (.10) qb q 18
3 Integrate: v x x 0 + sin Ωt, y y 0 + q v Ω q Ω cos Ωt (.11) Figure.: Gyro center (x 0, y 0 ) and orbit This is the equation of a circle with center r 0 (x 0, y 0 ) and radius r L v /Ω: Gyro Radius. [Angle is θ Ωt] Direction of rotation is as indicated opposite for opposite sign of charge: Ions rotate anticlockwise. Electrons clockwise about the magnetic field. The current carried by the plasma always is in such a direction as to reduce the magnetic field. This is the property of a magnetic material which is Diagmagnetic. When v is non zero the total motion is along a helix.. Uniform B and non zero E mv q(e + v B) (.1) Parallel motion: Before, when E 0 this was v const. Now it is clearly Constant acceleration along the field. qe v (.13) m Perpendicular Motion Qualitatively: Speed of positive particle is greater at top than bottom so radius of curvature is greater. Result is that guiding center moves perpendicular to both E and B. It drifts across the field. Algebraically: It is clear that if we can find a constant velocity v d that satisfies E + v d B 0 (.14) 19
4 Figure.3: E B drift orbit then the sum of this drift velocity plus the velocity d v L [r L e iω(t t 0) ] (.15) dt which we calculated for the E 0 gyration will satisfy the equation of motion. Take B the above equation: 0 E B + (v d B) B E B + (v d.b)b B v d (.16) so that does satisfy it. Hence the full solution is v d E B (.17) B v v + v d + v L (.18) parallel cross field drift Gyration where qe v (.19) m and v d (eq.17) is the E B drift of the gyrocenter. Comments on E B drift: 1. It is independent of the properties of the drifting particle (q, m, v, whatever).. Hence it is in the same direction for electrons and ions. 3. Underlying physics for this is that in the frame moving at the E B drift E 0. We have transformed away the electric field. 4. Formula given above is exact except for the fact that relativistic effects have been ignored. They would be important if v d c. 0
5 ..1 Drift due to Gravity or other Forces Suppose particle is subject to some other force, such as gravity. Write it F so that 1 mv F + q v B q( F + v B) (.0) q This is just like the Electric field case except with F/q replacing E. The drift is therefore v d 1 F B (.1) q B In this case, if force on electrons and ions is same, they drift in opposite directions. This general formula can be used to get the drift velocity in some other cases of interest (see later)..3 Non Uniform B Field If B lines are straight but the magnitude of B varies in space we get orbits that look qualitatively similar to the E B case: Figure.4: B drift orbit Curvature of orbit is greater where B is greater causing loop to be small on that side. Result is a drift perpendicular to both B and B. Notice, though, that electrons and ions go in opposite directions (unlike E B). Algebra We try to find a decomposition of the velocity as before into v v d + v L where v d is constant. We shall find that this can be done only approximately. Also we must have a simple expres sion for B. This we get by assuming that the Larmor radius is much smaller than the scale length of B variation i.e., r L << B/ B (.) 1
6 in which case we can express the field approximately as the first two terms in a Taylor expression: B B 0 + (r. )B (.3) Then substituting the decomposed velocity we get: dv m dt m v L q(v B) q[v L B 0 + v d B 0 + (v L + v d ) (r. )B] (.4) or 0 v d B 0 + v L (r. )B + v d (r. )B (.5) Now we shall find that v d /v L is also small, like r B /B. Therefore the last term here is second order but the first two are first order. So we drop the last term. Now the awkward part is that v L and r L are periodic. Substitute for r r 0 + r L so 0 v d B 0 + v L (r L. )B + v L (r 0. )B (.6) We now average over a cyclotron period. The last term is e iωt so it averages to zero: 0 v d B + v L (r L. )B. (.7) To perform the average use r L (x L, y L ) v q sin Ωt, cos Ωt (.8) Ω q ( ) v cos Ωt, q L ( ẋ L, ẏ L ) v sin Ωt (.9) q d So [v L (r. )B] x v y y B (.30) dy d [v L (r. )B] y v x y dy B (.31) (Taking B to be in the y direction). Then v y y v cos Ωt sin Ωt 0 Ω (.3) v x y q v 1 v q cos Ωt cos Ωt q Ω Ω q (.33) So Substitute in: q 1 v v L (r. )B B q Ω (.34) q v 0 v d B B q Ω (.35)
7 and solve as before to get v 1 B B q Ω q v B B v d B q Ω B (.36) or equivalently This is called the Grad B drift. v d 1 mv B B q B B (.37).4 Curvature Drift When the B field lines are curved and the particle has a velocity v along the field, another drift occurs. Figure.5: Curvature and Centrifugal Force Take B constant; radius of curvature R e. To 1st order the particle just spirals along the field. In the frame of the guiding center a force appears because the plasma is rotating about the center of curvature. This centrifugal force is F cf as a vector v F cf m pointing outward (.38) R c R c c F cf mv (.39) R [There is also a coriolis force m(ω v) but this averages to zero over a gyroperiod.] Use the previous formula for a force 1 F cf B mv R c B v d q B qb R c (.40) 3
8 This is the Curvature Drift. It is often convenient to have this expressed in terms of the field gradients. So we relate R c to B etc. as follows: Figure.6: Differential expression of curvature (Carets denote unit vectors) From the diagram and So But (by definition) So the curvature drift can be written v d.4.1 Vacuum Fields mv Relation between B & R c drifts q db ˆb ˆb 1 ˆR c α (.41) dl R c (.4) db dl ˆR c R c R c Rc R c Rc (.43) db dl ( ˆB. )ˆb (.44) B mv B (ˆ b. )ˆ b B q B (.45) The curvature and B are related because of Maxwell s equations, their relation depends on the current density j. A particular case of interest is j 0: vacuum fields. Figure.7: Local polar coordinates in a vacuum field B 0 (static case) (.46) 4
9 Consider the z component 1 0 ( B) z (rb θ ) (B r 0 by choice). (.47) r r B θ B θ + (.48) r r or, in other words, B ( B) r (.49) Rc [Note also 0 ( B) θ B θ / z : ( B) z 0] and hence ( B) perp B R c /R. c Thus the grad B drift can be written: mv B B mv R c B v B q B 3 q Rc B (.50) and the total drift across a vacuum field becomes 1 1 R c B v R + v B mv + mv. (.51) q Rc B Notice the following: 1. R c & B drifts are in the same direction.. They are in opposite directions for opposite charges. 3. They are proportional to particle energies 4. Curvature Parallel Energy ( ) B Perpendicular Energy 5. As a result one can very quickly calculate the average drift over a thermal distribution of particles because 1 T mv (.5) 1 mv T degrees of freedom (.53) Therefore T R ˆ c B T B b. b ˆ v R + v B (.54) q R B q B c 5
10 .5 Interlude: Toroidal Confinement of Single Particles Since particles can move freely along a magnetic field even if not across it, we cannot obviously confine the particles in a straight magnetic field. Obvious idea: bend the field lines into circles so that they have no ends. Problem Curvature & B drifts Figure.8: Toroidal field geometry 1 1 R B v d mv + mv (.55) q R B ( ) v d mv + mv (.56) q BR Ions drift up. Electrons down. There is no confinement. When there is finite density things Figure.9: Charge separation due to vertical drift are even worse because charge separation occurs E E B Outward Motion..5.1 How to solve this problem? Consider a beam of electrons v 0 v 0. Drift is v d mv q 1 B T R (.57) 6
11 What B z is required to cancel this? Adding B z gives a compensating vertical velocity B z v v for B z << B T (.58) B T We want total v z 0 v + mv q B T q B T R So B z mv /Rq is the right amount of field. Note that this is such as to make B z (.59) mv r L (B z ) R. (.60) qb z But B z required depends on v and q so we can t compensate for all particles simultaneously. Vertical field along cannot do it..5. The Solution: Rotational Transform Figure.10: Tokamak field lines with rotational transform Toroidal Coordinate system (r, θ, φ) (minor radius, poloidal angle, toroidal angle), see figure.8. Suppose we have a poloidal field B θ Field Lines become helical and wind around the torus: figure.10. 7
12 In the poloidal cross section the field describes a circle as it goes round in φ. Equation of motion of a particle exactly following the field is: dθ B θ B θ B φ B θ r v φ v v (.61) dt B φ B φ B B and r constant. (.6) Now add on to this motion the cross field drift in the ẑ direction. Figure.11: Components of velocity Take ratio, to eliminate time: dθ B θ r v + v d cos θ (.63) dt B dr v d sin θ (.64) dt 1 dr u d sin θ B (.65) r dθ θ v + v d cos θ B Take B θ, B, v, v d to be constants, then we can integrate this orbit equation: B θ v [ln r] [ ln + v d cos θ ]. (.66) B π Take r r 0 when cos θ 0 (θ ) then [ ] Bv d r r 0 / 1 + cos θ (.67) b θ v If Bv d B θ v << 1 this is approximately r r 0 Δ cos θ (.68) where Δ Bv d r 0 B θ v This is approximately a circular orbit shifted by a distance Δ: 8
13 Figure.1: Shifted, approximately circular orbit Substitute for v d 1 + B 1 (mv mv ) 1 Δ r 0 (.69) q v B φ R B θ 1 1 mv + mv r p (.70) qb θ v R mv r 0 r 0 If v 0 Δ r Lθ, (.71) qb θ R R where r Lθ is the Larmor Radius in a field B θ r/r. Provided Δ is small, particles will be confined. Obviously the important thing is the poloidal rotation of the field lines: Rotational Transform. Rotational Transform rotational transform (transform/π ) ι poloidal angle (.7) 1 toroidal rotation poloidal angle. (.73) toroidal angle (Originally, ι was used to denote the transform. Since about 1990 it has been used to denote the transform divided by π which is the inverse of the safety factor.) Safety Factor 1 toroidal angle q s. (.74) ι poloidal angle Actually the value of these ratios may vary as one moves around the magnetic field. Definition strictly requires one should take the limit of a large no. of rotations. q s is a topological number: number of rotations the long way per rotation the short way. Cylindrical approx.: rb φ q s (.75) RB θ 9
14 In terms of safety factor the orbit shift can be written r B φ r Δ r Lθ r Lφ r L q s (.76) R B θ R (assuming B φ >> B θ )..6 The Mirror Effect of Parallel Field Gradients: E 0, B B Figure.13: Basis of parallel mirror force In the above situation there is a net force along B.

15 Hence 1 v r L B z mv > B z < F q. (.84) z B z As particle enters increasing field region it experiences a net parallel retarding force. Define Magnetic Moment 1 mv /B.

Our µ always points along B but in opposite direction. F µ. B (.87).6.1 Force on an Elementary Magnetic Moment Circuit Consider a plane rectangular circuit carrying current I having elementary area dxdy da. Regard this as a vector pointing in the z direction da. The force on this circuit in a field B(r) is F such that B z F x Idy[B z (x + dx) B z (x)] Idydx x (.88) F y F z Idx[B z (y + dy) B z (y)] Idydx B z y Idx[B y (y + dy) B y (y)] Idy[B x (x + dx) B x (x)] [ ] B x Idxdy x + B y Idydx B z y z (.89) (.90) (.91) (Using.B 0). Hence, summarizing: F Idydx B z. Now define µ IdA Idydxẑ and take it constant. Then clearly the force can be written F (B.µ) [Strictly ( B).µ] (.9) µ is the (vector) magnetic moment of the circuit. The shape of the circuit does not matter since any circuit can be considered to be composed of the sum of many rectangular circuits. So in general µ IdA (.93) 31
16 and force is F (B.µ) (µ constant), (.94) We shall show in a moment that µ is constant for a circulating particle, regard as an elementary circuit. Also, µ for a particle always points in the B direction. [Note that this means that the effect of particles on the field is to decrease it.] Hence the force may be written F µ B (.95) This gives us both: Magnetic Mirror Force: and Grad B Drift: F µ B (.96) 1 F B µ B B.

But may not! Let s calculate whether it will: Suppose reflection occurs. At reflection point v r 0. Energy conservation 1 1 m(v 0 + v 0 ) mv r (.11) 33

This is the polarization drift. Start up effect: When we switch on an electric field the average position (gyro center) of an initially stationary particle shifts over by 1 the orbit size. The polarization drift is this polarization effect on the medium. Total shift due to v p is Δr v p dt m Ê qb dt m qb [ΔE ].

This term comes from the change in v D with time (accel). Thus our earlier expression was only approximate. A good approx if ω << Ω..9 Non Uniform E (Finite Larmor Radius) Seek the usual soltuion v v D + v g. Then average out over a gyro orbit dv m q (E(r) + v B) (.148) dt dv D m 0 q (E(r) + v B) (.149) dt q [ E(r) + v D B] (.150) Hence drift is obviously So we just need to find the average E field experienced.
