Electron confinement on magnetic field lines

Electron confinement on magnetic field lines

Laboratory experience that allows visualization of basic plasma parameters is a powerful learning experience. Here we show two sequences of pictures that allow students to visually comprehend both magnetic confinement of electrons as well as electron-neutral collision rates.
