Abstract

The simulation studies of the role of reconnection in the 'current hole' experiments in the joint European Torus were discussed. It was found that in the first case, the reconnection was limited to a small region around the axis and clamps the core current at zero. The interpretation of the simulation results were found to be given in terms of analytic equilibrium theory and the relation to conventional sawteeth and to a reduced-MHD analysis of the phenomenon in cylinderical geeometry.
