Abstract
The first experimental results obtained on plasma confined in a toroidal heliac are reported. A simple method of generating highly ionized, weakly collisional plasma is described. It is found that the geometry of the plasma in general and the measured pressure profiles in particular conform closely with the calculated helical axis magnetic surfaces. Preliminary indications of plasma confinement are favourable.
