The cylindrical vector potential gives a uniform axial magnetic field , while scalar potential supplies harmonic axial confinement for positive charge and positive . Transverse motion is cyclotron motion about a fixed guiding centre, and axial motion is an independent harmonic oscillation. A circle centred on the cylindrical origin has for positive charge.
