... In addition, a kinetic stability theorem has been developed that determines a sufficient condition for the nonlinear stability of cylindrically symmetric equilibria to arbitrary-amplitude perturbations, including the influence of strong self-field effects. Ion Plasmas Another type of single-component plasma that has been studied extensively is the magnetized, pure ion plasma, confined in a Penning trap, and cooled by laser radiation.
