In the vacuum region that is between the plasma and the first wall, there is no current, i.e.,
![]() | (554) |
Next, let us examine what constraint this condition imposes on the magnetic field. Using expression (10), the above equation is written as
![]() | (555) |
It is not obvious how to draw useful information from the above equation.
In the above, we use the vector potential approach. Next, let us try the scalar potential approach:
![]() | (556) |
then the constraint ∇⋅ B = 0 is written as
![]() | (557) |
