ABSTRACT:
A magnetically confined helical z-pinch plasma is formed as a helicoid having an approximately D-shaped cross section, thereby generating a large transform of magnetic field line pitch suitably distributed throughout the plasma volume to aid in the reversal of field lines in the axial direction and increase magnetic shear.
