Description
Resistive mhd is inappropriate to describe tokamak sawtooth reconnection. It is found that under usual conditions the electric field resulting from flux reconnection is very large. The resulting acceleration of the electrons is such that reconnection is determined by electron inertia rather than electron collisions. (author). 5 refs, 3 figs
