摘要：

The “Spheromak”, an optimal force-free spherical plasma configuration, is analysed for its MHD stability properties. It is shown that flattened ellipse (oblimak) with ⟶j = k⟶B (k independent of ⟶r) should be stable against all magnetically driven MHD and resistive tearing modes if surrounded by a conducting wall at about rw/r0 = 1.15. βs of at least 2% can be stably confined, equivalent to 20% in tokamaks. © 1979 IOP Publishing Ltd.
