Abstract

This paper concerns the time-dependent motions of the cavity formed when a uniform corpuscular flux is incident on the magnetic field of a line current. The two-dimensional problem is formulated and solved with two particular classes of solutions being given; namely, the steady-state solutions and the time-history of the interaction with a cloud of flux.
