      A simple magnetized plasma torus is modeled by using a 'top-hat' density variation. The benefit of this simplification is an exactly solvable model, allowing for a few additions, such as an externally maintained parabolic steady state potential variation imposed on the plasma. The combined effects of the resulting plasma rotation and the plasma polarization due to magnetic field gradient particle ...
