Abstract
A method to stabilize position and shape of a plasma beam established between a cathode and an anode, where an electrical field is established between the cathode and the anode and where the shortest electrical field line between the cathode and the anode defines a reference line, wherein at least one oriented electromagnetic coil is provided and the at least one oriented electromagnetic coil has its coil axis oriented in a non-colinear manner to the reference line in such a way that at least one of the straight lines which are intersecting both of the coil openings and which are parallel to the coil axis intersects with the reference line and where a current is sent through the at least one oriented electromagnetic coil in order to establish a magnetic field which is used to deflect or attract the plasma beam.
