Аннотация:
The magnetic structure of a cylindrical RFP plasma in which the equilibrium is perturbed by two resonant modes is determined analytically by using an averaging method to solve the differential field-line equations. The primary modes couple themselves and excite others, also creating magnetic islands in secondary resonance regions. Average magnetic surfaces are compared with Poincare maps obtained by direct integration of field-line equations.
