Tamm's theorem

From EverybodyWiki Bios & Wiki


In plasma physics, Tamm's theorem is a statement that in the absence of collisions and turbulence, all guiding-center drift orbits of particles in an axisymmetric magnetic field (e.g. tokamak) are confined to the order of a poloidal gyroradius of a given flux surface. The theorem is named after Soviet physicist Igor Tamm.[1]
