Abstract
Time-varying, azimuthal electron current is obtained from measured two-dimensional profiles of excited magnetic fields, using the Rotating Magnetic Field (RMF) plasma acceleration method in an open magnetic field configuration. The RMF is applied orthogonally to cylindrical plasma, leading to the azimuthal current drive via the Hall effect. Here, dc azimuthal current, whose magnitude is equivalent to that of ac azimuthal current with twice the RMF frequency, is verified for the first time. In addition, an expected current reversal is found, with the RMF rotation direction changing by 180°.
