The problem of the charged-particle motion in an axisymmetric magnetic-dipole geometry is used to assess the validity of Hamiltonian guiding-center theory, which includes higher-order corrections associated with guiding-center polarization…
The problem of the charged-particle motion in crossed electric and magnetic fields is investigated, and the validity of the guiding-center representation is assessed in comparison with the exact particle dynamics. While the magnetic field…
The motion of a charged particle in a nonuniform straight magnetic field with a uniform magnetic-field gradient is solved exactly in terms of elliptic functions. The connection between this problem and the guiding-center approximation is…
A quantal guiding center theory allowing to systematically study the separation of the different time scale behaviours of a quantum charged spinning particle moving in an external inhomogeneous magnetic filed is presented. A suitable set of…
The guiding center and gyrokinetic theory of magnetized particle motion is extended to the regime of large electric field gradients perpendicular to the magnetic field. A gradient in the electric field directly modifies the oscillation…
A numerical integration method for guiding-center orbits of charged particles in toroidal fusion devices with three-dimensional field geometry is described. Here, high order interpolation of electromagnetic fields in space is replaced by a…
Compact formulas for trapped-particle and passing-particle guiding-center orbits in axisymmetric tokamak geometry are given in terms of the Jacobi elliptic functions and complete elliptic integrals. These formulas can find applications in…
The guiding center approximation represents a very powerful tool for analyzing and modeling a charged particle motion in strong magnetic fields. This approximation is based on conservation of the adiabatic invariant, magnetic moment.…
Charged particle motion in axisymmetric toroidal magnetic fields is analyzed within the context of the canonical Hamiltonian Guiding Center theory. A canonical transformation to variables measuring the drift orbit deviation from a magnetic…
We study the motion of a charged particle under the action of a magnetic field with cylindrical symmetry. In particular we consider magnetic fields with constant direction and with magnitude depending on the distance $r$ from the symmetry…
We examine the behaviour of charged particles in homogeneous, constant and/or oscillating magnetic fields in the non-relativistic approximation. A special role of the geometric center of the particle trajectory is elucidated. In quantum…
In this paper we discuss epicycloid approximation of the trajectories of charged particles in axisymmetric magnetic fields. Epicycloid trajectories are natural in the Guiding Center approximation and we study in detail the errors arising in…
Equivalent guiding-center Hamiltonian theories are constructed based on higher-order Lie-transform perturbation methods. Higher-order guiding-center theories are distinguished on the basis of whether correction terms associated with…
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-order guiding-centre motion. We find that the conditions to…
The nonperturbative guiding-center model provides an exact alternative to full-orbit simulations of charged particle dynamics in situations where traditional guiding-center theory may fail. We demonstrate that the charged particle motion in…
To identify under what conditions guiding-centre or full-orbit tracing should be used, an estimation of the spatial variation of the magnetic field is proposed, not only taking into account gradient and curvature terms but also parallel…
Two complementary representations of higher-order guiding-center theory are presented, which are distinguished by whether higher-order corrections due to magnetic-field nonuniformity appear in the guiding-center Poisson bracket or the…
A charged particle in a suitably strong magnetic field spirals along the field lines while slowly drifting transversely. This note provides a brief derivation of an effective Lagrangian formulation for the guiding-centre approximation that…
We study the problem of test-particle motion in the Nonsymmetric Gravitational Theory (NGT) assuming the four-velocity of the particle is parallel-transported along the trajectory. The predicted motion is studied on a static, spherically…
A new generalized St\"ormer problem is proposed. The charged particles motion around a rotating axisymmetric magnetic planet is studied using various conditions mainly in planetary magnetospheres. It is shown that the existence of specific…
