PACS: 52.55.-s
1. INTRODUCTION
The processes of detrapping / retrapping of the charged
particles under the high-frequency parallel electric field
can be considered as the resonance between the bounce
frequency of the trapped particle and the frequency of the
externally applied parallel electric field [1]. Principally
new effect studied here is the following. Linearly
increasing frequency is used for detrapping of charged
particle. The initial value of the frequency of the electric
field is close to the bounce frequency of the trapped
particle. Detrapping / retrapping processes of the charged
particle under the alternating parallel electric field is
studied by numerical integration of guiding center
equations in two types of magnetic configurations.
Outward shifted configuration and inward shifted
configuration [2] are considered and compared.
2.1 Magnetic field model
The components of the magnetic field are as follows:
( ) ( )( ) ( )ϕϑε mlaralmRBB l
lmr −−= − sin1
0 (1)
( ) ( )( ) ( )ϕϑεϑ mlaralmRBB l
lm −−= − cos1
0 (2)
( ) ( ) ( ){ }ϕϑεϑϕ mlarRrBB l
lm −++= coscos10 (3)
where 0B is the magnetic field at a circular axis of the
torus with major radius R and minor radius a. The
coordinates ϕϑ ,,r are connected with circular axis of the
torus: radial variable r, toroidal and poloidal angles ϑ , ϕ
; m is the number of magnetic field periods along the
torus, l is the number of the helical winding poles; lmε
are the coefficients of harmonics of the magnetic field.
The magnetic field absolute value is given by ϕBB ≈ .
The vertical magnetic field is added to the main magnetic
field.

Inward shifted configuration and outward shifted
configuration are obtained by varying of the vertical
magnetic field ⊥B .
2.2 Electric field model
Electric field which acts on the charged particle is taken
in such form:
( ) ( )δϕϑϕ +Ω−= tmlEE lm coscos (5)
where lmE is electric field amplitude, Ω is the frequency
and δ is the phase of the electric field oscillation. During
the process of detrapping the frequency of the electric
field Ω is linearly increasing from toroidal
bounceω to helical
bounceω ,
where toroidal
bounceω is the bounce frequency of toroidally
trapped particle and helical
bounceω is the bounce frequency of
helically trapped particle.
2.3 Guiding Center equations

where ||υ is the parallel velocity of the charged particle,

guiding center equations.
3. ANALYSIS OF THE TRANSITION
PROCESS
Using guiding center equations and expressions for
magnetic field components we obtain magnetic surface

For further studies we consider l=2 case in order to

Using the equation 0=Ψ∇B , considering only linear
perturbing terms, we can write ( ) ( ) 01010 =Ψ+Ψ∇+ BB ,
where 0B is the main magnetic field, 1B is the small
adding to the main magnetic field due to the vertical
magnetic field, and 1Ψ is the small adding to the function
Ψ due to the vertical magnetic field. Full function Ψ

As trapped or blocked particle alters the direction of its
motion, the trajectory has reflection points. While altering
the direction of the particle motion the longitudinal
velocity changes its sign and equals zero at the reflection
point. Thus the analysis of the equation (9) for ||υ is
important for understanding the condition of particle
transition from the trapped state to the passing one. Now
we pass to the analysis of the equation (9). Using the
expressions (6), (7) for r and ϑr we can write the
expression for ||υ in such form:

As one can see, the expressions for ∗F and ∗G contain
harmonics ( )ϕϑ m−sin and ( )ϕϑ m−cos . Therefore it is
possible to choose the form of the electric field model to
contain harmonics ( )ϕϑ m−sin or ( )ϕϑ m−cos .
4. Particle orbits in Inward Shifted and Outward
Shifted configurations
For the further numerical study we take the magnetic
configuration with the following parameters: R = 1000
cm, a = 200 cm, 0B = 3T, l = 2, m =10. The
configuration with such parameters is chosen to
understand the physics of considered phenomena in the
magnetic systems with large aspect ratio.
Inward shifted configuration.
Fig.1 presents the magnetic field modulation in this
configuration with 016,00 −=⊥ BB . When the proton
Fig. 1 Magnetic field modulation in INWARD SHIFTED
configuration
with the energy 1 keV, 2,0|| =υυ moves in such
magnetic configuration it is trapped on the toroidal
inhomogenity of the magnetic field (blocked particle).
The high-frequency externally applied electric field with
linearly increasing frequency is used to detrap the
particle. The motion of the particle changes considerably.
Fig. 2 Illustration of the transition of the test particle
from the blocked state into the passing one in INWARD
SHIFTED configuration.
On the Fig.2 one can see the parallel velocity of the test
particle while transiting from the blocked state into the
passing one. The vertical cross-section of the orbit of the
passing particle is shown on Fig.3.

configuration.
Fig. 4 Magnetic field modulation in OUTWARD
SHIFTED configuration.
Outward shifted configuration.
On the Fig.4 it is shown the magnetic field modulation,
corresponding to the outward shifted configuration with
019,00 =⊥ BB . When the test particle (1keV proton
with 2,0|| =υυ ) moves in the magnetic field of a such
configuration, it is helically trapped. But, as it is seen
from the Fig.5, when the electric field with linearly
increasing frequency (dashed line on the Fig.5) acts on
the test particle it becomes the passing one. The Fig.6
shows the vertical cross-section of the test particle orbit.
In real stellarator type devices including the helical
devices the magnetic axis is shifted from the circular axis
of the torus. This shift is increased under the effect of the
finite β , where β is the ratio of the plasma gas kinetic
pressure to the magnetic pressure ( 28 BnTπβ = ). The
displacement of magnetic axis ∆ is the measure of β .
CONCLUSION
1. The principally new thing considered here is the
application of the alternating electric field with
variable in time frequency with the goal to force the
transition of the charged particle from the trapped
state into the passing one.

from the trapped state into the passing one in OUTWARD
SHIFTED configuration.

trapped state into the passing one in OUTWARD
SHIFTED configuration.
2. The process of transition is studied in two
configurations with different magnetic field
modulation. It is shown that particle transition from
the trapped state into one takes place in both
configurations.
3. Magnetic field model with l=2 is considered in
numerical studies and it is shown that the AC electric
field has to contain l=1 harmonics.
