Two-dimensional magnetohydrodynamic equilibria. (English) Zbl 0662.76139

For the two-dimensional MHD equilibria, the system of ideal MHD equations is reduced to a single nonlinear equation of the magnetic potential as a ‘Sh-Gordon equation’. A set of analytical solutions is presented which are adequate for describing parallel filaments of a diffused magnetized plasma suspended horizontally in equilibrium in a uniform gravitational field.
