Geometry of a loop composed of a semicircular central part of length L and apparent radius R (in blue), with two vertical legs of length Lc (in black). Vector s follows the magnetic axis of the loop, from left to right by convention. The electron temperature, density, and pressure are respectively indicated at the apex (s = Lc + L/2) as Tapex, napex, and Papex, and at the top of the vertical legs (s = Lc and s = Lc + L) as T0, n0, and P0.
