Outline of Final Research Achievements

Nested magnetic flux surface is required to maintain high performance plasma in magnetic confined fusion reactor. However, when an error field (perturbation field) due to misalignment of magnetic coils exceeds a certain value, MHD instability leading to major disruption is excited. In this study, we had investigated a plasma response to perturbation field in helical plasma in order to clarify the threshold of penetration of perturbation field to the plasma. Experiments show that the penetration threshold strongly depend on magnetic configuration such as magnetic shear, magnetic hill and so on, and the density dependence of the threshold largely changes when the plasma aspect ratio is changed. These results are quite different from those from tokamaks.
