We calculate the static paramagnetic response of thin superconductors of the first kind to terms proportional to a static external magnetic field and a static scalar potential. The response is in the form of a current. The corresponding magnetic field is calculated for a thin cylindrical shell and is proportional to the electrochemical potential.

The origin of a regular magnetic field in astrophysical jets is discussed. It is shown that jet plasma flow can generate a magnetic field provided the streamlines are helical. The dynamo of this type, known as the screw dynamo, generates magnetic fields with the dominant azimuthal wave number m = 1 whose field lines also have a helical shape. The field concentrates into a relatively thin cylindrical shell and its configuration is favorable for the collimation and confinement of the jet plasma.

The magnetic field due to a given current distribution, the interaction energy of a current distribution with an arbitrary external magnetic field, and the magnetostatic interaction energy between two current distributions are decomposed into multipolar components using spherical harmonic expansions. Diamagnetic interactions and the spin contributions to the multipole expansions are also discussed.

A class of equilibrium configurations of Vlasov plasmas carrying a current component along an external magnetic field is presented. The present slab model contains the diamagnetic current jy, and the field-aligned current jz for arbitrary βc (= particle pressure/magnetic pressure of the applied constant field). For fixed βc and field-aligned current, our model admits a family of equilibrium solutions in which the diamagnetic currents range from zero to a maximum value. The amount of diamagnetic current flowing in a machine depends on the width of the machine, the field-aligned current and other plasma parameters. The Helmholtz free energy of the system is calculated under the constraints that the total number of particles and the field-aligned current are conserved. The least unstable equilibrium configuration in a machine is obtained by minimizing the free energy under the stated constraints among all equilibria whose plasma widths do not exceed the width of the machine.

We study the possibility of the existence of the electric current, formed by massive electrons and positrons, flowing along an external magnetic field. The charged fermions are supposed to have nonzero anomalous magnetic moments and electroweakly interact with background matter. The expression for the current is obtained on the basis of the exact solution of the Dirac equation in the corresponding external fields. We demonstrate that, in the state of equilibrium, such a current is vanishing for any characteristics of the electron–positron plasma as well as the external fields. Our results are compared with the recent findings of other authors.
