Abstract
Results are presented from thin (resistive) shell experiments on HBTX and compared with theoretical (linear and non-linear) studies of the plasma stability. Current pulses of 3-5 ms are obtained, compared with the shell time constant for vertical field penetration of 0.5 ms. Theoretically predicted thin shell modes, phase locked to the wall, are prominent experimentally.
