high energy density plasma pressure
[math]\displaystyle{ 1 MBar = 1 \times 10^6 \times 10^5 Pa = 10^{11} Pa = 10^{11} (N m)/(m^2) = 10^{11} J/m = 10^{11} (10^7 erg)/(10^6 cm^3) = 10^{12} erg/cm^3 }[/math]
magnetic field produced by single wire (Ampere law / Biot-Savart Law)
[math]\displaystyle{ B[G] = \frac{I[A]}{5r[cm]} }[/math]
100 kA at 1 um radius is 200 MG
magnetic pressure
[math]\displaystyle{ P_{magnetic}[bar] = (2 \times B[T])^2 \sim I^2 \times R^{-2} }[/math]
[math]\displaystyle{ 5 \times 10^6 G \Rightarrow 1 MBar }[/math]
[math]\displaystyle{ 200 \times 10^6 G \Rightarrow 1,600 MBar }[/math]
Bennett condition
- magnetic pressure = plasmakinetic pressure
- so our plasma pressure (at 100 kA at 1 um radius) is about 1,600 MBar (wau!! really??!!)
