| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The final goal of this research is to reveal a physical mechanisms of a vortex crystal observed in non-neutral plasmas in terms of statistical physics. Before proceeding with the vortex crystal experiments, phase space trajectories of two discrete electron vortex strings have been observed in order to confirm a equivalence between electron vortices and 2D Euler fluid. In a result, the deterioration of the equivalence was observed due to non-ideal electric field at both ends of the trap. This non-ideal effects could be suppressed by applying a stepwise potential at the boundary.
In mathematics it is well known that m-point singular solution exists to 2D Euler equation for point-vortex system in an annulus boundary. Unstable equilibrium solutions of few electron vortex strings have been observed by calculating the potential distribution in the annulus boundary. We speculate that these solutions correspond to the m-point singular solution of mathematics.
