Experimental Study of Fast Reconnection of the Magnetic Fields Through Plane Pinch Current Sheet

Abstract

Pinch current sheets are those distinguished regions in the plasma where considerable cumulation of magnetic energy and fast energy releade with consequent transformation in plasma flows and high energy particles beams is possible. The study of formation and stability of the current sheets is highly essential for elucidation the nature of such astrophysical phenomena as solar flares, magnetospheric substorms and so on. The development of disruptive instabilities in tokomak plasmas is apparently results from the formation and the destruction of current sheets
