Characterization of admissible quasisymmetries
J. W. Burby, N. Kallinikos, R. S. MacKay +2
We solve "half" the problem of finding three-dimensional quasisymmetric magnetic fields that do not necessarily satisfy force balance. This involves determining which hidden symmet…
Regions without invariant tori of given class for the planar circular restricted three-body problem
Nikos Kallinikos, Robert S. MacKay, Tom Syndercombe
A method to establish regions of phase space through which pass no invariant tori transverse to a given direction field is applied to the planar circular restricted three-body prob…
Approximate symmetries of guiding-centre motion
Joshua W. Burby, Nikos Kallinikos, Robert S. MacKay
Quasisymmetry builds a third invariant for charged-particle motion besides energy and magnetic moment. We address quasisymmetry at the level of approximate symmetries of first-orde…
Generalized Grad-Shafranov equation for non-axisymmetric MHD equilibria
J. W. Burby, N. Kallinikos, R. S. MacKay
The structure of static MHD equilibria that admit continuous families of Euclidean symmetries is well understood. Such field configurations are governed by the classical Grad-Shafr…
Some mathematics for quasi-symmetry
Joshua W. Burby, Nikos Kallinikos, Robert S. MacKay
Quasi-symmetry of a steady magnetic field means integrability of first-order guiding-centre motion. Here we derive many restrictions on the possibilities for a quasi-symmetry. We a…
