摘要
Measurements are made on details of the drift motion of a collisionless plasma in a sector device under a curved magnetic field with an l=2 helical winding. The drift arising from the polarized electric field due to the charge separation is observed to reduce with an increase in the angle of rotational transform, although the complete depolarization does not occur in a sector device. The results are found to be well consistent with a simple model for imperfect cancellation of the charge separation in the presence of the rotational transform. © 1979, THE PHYSICAL SOCIETY OF JAPAN.
