Abstract
Cylindrical Vlasov equilibrium of an intense REB with reversal of the axial magnetic field is studied. The particle distribution function is a delta function in the three constants of motion, the canonical axial and azimuthal angular momenta and the Hamiltonian. There are configurations with the axial current exceeding Hammer-Rostoker current and with highly force-free state. Such configurations may be of interest in connection with plasma confinement by a toroidal REB.
