Abstract

An investigation in the trapped-particle regime shows that the plasma loss cannot be described by neoclassical theory for a stellarator. In a circular l=3 stellarator or a torsatron with a collisionless plasma, the functional dependence of the diffusion coefficient on magnetic field and rotational transform is characteristic of the plateau region.
