high energy density plasma pressure
magnetic field produced by single wire (Ampere law / Biot-Savart Law)
100 kA at 1 um radius is 200 MG
magnetic pressure
Bennett condition
- magnetic pressure = plasmakinetic pressure
- so our plasma pressure (at 100 kA at 1 um radius) is about 1,600 MBar (wau!! really??!!)
