Abstract
Coaxial Helicity Injection (CHI) on the National Spherical Torus Experiment (NSTX)
has produced 390kA of toroidal current without the use of the central solenoid. The ratio of
the toroidal current to the injector current has reached 14. CHI discharge pulse lengths of up
to 330ms were obtained.
