摘要：

Steady-state quiescent field-reversed configurations are produced in the toroidal UCLA RACETRACK [Rev. Sci. Instrum. 57, 2720 (1986)] by rotating magnetic fields. Observed pressure and magnetic field profiles agree with high beta, rigid electron rotor theory. Full penetration of the right-hand component of the rotating field and slight ion drag by the electrons were observed for the first time.
