Description

Recent results derived on non-linear saturation of tearing modes (Norris, J., Plasma Phys. Contr. Fusion, 1989, Vol. 31, 699) are examined in relation to previously published literature. It is explicitly demonstrated that they are at variance in several important respects with those due to previous workers in this area. (author)
