摘要
We investigate electron transport for a thermal plasma using a magnetostatic plasma model. Three cases are investigated; (1) fixed ions, only magnetic fluctuations; (2) fixed ions, magnetic and electrostatic fluctuations; (3) mobile ions, magnetic, and electrostatic fluctuations. For (1), magnetic islands as well as many unclosed field lines occurred; for (2) and (3) electrostatic convective cells occurred along with magnetic islands giving a much more turbulent situation. Generally the transport due to electrostatic convective cells dominated. © 1978 The American Physical Society.
