In this paper we discuss conditions under which charged particles are confined by an axisymmetric longitudinal magnetic field with power law dependence on the radius. We derive a transcendental equation for the critical speed corresponding to the threshold between bounded and unbounded trajectories of the particles. This threshold speed shows strong dependence on the direction, and this dependence becomes more prominent as the exponent of the power law increases. The equation for threshold speed can be solved exactly for several specific values of the power exponent, but in general it requires a numerical treatment. Remarkably, if the magnetic field magnitude decreases more slowly than the inverse of the radius, charged particles remain confined no matter how large their energies may be.

Abstract The paper presents an experimental verification of the adequacy of a physical and mathematical model describing the influence of an external transverse magnetic field on the distribution of the charged particles in a positive column of a gas discharge. A gas-discharge laser located in a transverse magnetic field was used to conduct the study. The vacuum installation allows pumping out the system and feeding the gas mixture into it under a certain pressure. The data obtained during the experiments differ from the calculated ones by no more than 4–5 %.
