Description

Full text: Magnetic island formation is experimentally investigated in the Large Helical Device (LHD). An error field or the external field generates the seed island. The island shrinks as the electron temperature or the beta increases in the case of lower magnetic hill, but it grows in the case of higher magnetic hill. An evidence of (m,n)=(1,1) current in the magnetic island is obtained, where m and n are the poloidal and the toroidal mode numbers, respectively. (author)
