Momentum and Angular Momentum of Laser Plasma Produced by Irradiation of the Target Located in a Magnetic Field in Vacuum.

In experiments, the momentum and angular momentum of the slow magnetosonic and torsional Alfven waves produced by irradiating train of laser pulses of the target in a magnetic field in a vacuum or in a rarefied plasma with a magnetic field were investigated. At "resonance" of plasma bunches with background, a single Alfven wave and a single slow magnetosonic wave are formed. These waves transfer a momentum in a narrow tube of the magnetic field, angular momentum variation of the current, and the electric field. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
