Outline of Final Research Achievements |
For the experimental studies of low energy electron-positron plasmas, properties of a new compact magnetic mirror trap were investigated experimentally. It was suggested that the simultaneous confinement of 10 to 7th electrons and positrons would work for the purpose. Meanwhile, a low energy positron accumulator was also constructed and the parameters for the optimum operation were studied. As a result, positron confinement in the compact magnetic mirror trap was demonstrated. The simultaneous confinement of electrons and positrons are foreseen in the near future. New results were obtained in the related topics on non-neutral plasmas, which included the autoresonances and the evolutions of phase space distributions during vortex merging processes.
