ROTATIONAL TRANSFORM

Specialty Definition: ROTATIONAL TRANSFORM

DomainDefinition

Nuclear Energy & Physics

Property of the confining magnetic field in most toroidal configurations, such that each field line continued indefinitely does not close exactly upon itself, but, by rotating with respect to the magnetic axis of the configuration with a constant angle per revolution, generates a toroidal magnetic surface. (Plasma-Gloss. , BTB, No. 10739). Source: European Union. (references)
 Property conferred on the confining magnetic field in most toroidal configurations, such that each field line continued indefinitely does not close exactly upon itself, but by rotating w ith respect to the magnetic axis of the configuration with a constant angle per revolution(called the rotational transform angle)generates a toroidal magnetic surface.

Physics

The rotational transform, iota, commonly used in stellarators and other toroidal plasma confinement systems besides the tokamak, is the inverse of the Safety Factor, q, which is most commonly used in tokamaks. Please see the entry for the safety factor. (references)
