Abstract

The problem of vortices of ion-drift and related flute-drift, balloon-drift and drift-Alfvén waves is analysed, taking into account the finiteness of the Larmor radius of the ions. It is shown that the structure of the stationary ion-drift vortices is similar to that of the Alfvén waves. It is found that the stationary ion-drift vortices in a plasma confined in a curvilinear magnetic field are characterized, generally speaking, by two different spatial scales. The role of plasma rotation in the vortex problem is investigated.
