Periodical Plasma Structures Controlled by Oblique Magnetic Field
  The propulsion type plasma in oblique external magnetic field is studied in 2D3V PIC MCC simulations. A periodical structure with maxima of electron and ion densities appears with an increase of an obliqueness of magnetic field. These ridges of electron and ion densities are aligned with the magnetic field vector and shifted relative each other. As a result the two-dimensional double-layers structure forms in cylindrical plasma chamber. The ion and electron currents on the side wall are essential modulated by the oblique magnetic field.
