Abstract :
Images of the trapped particle fraction in single helicity states of the reversed field pinch configuration are presented. This study is carried out with the Hamiltonian Monte Carlo code ORBIT. The various kinds of trajectories strongly influence radial particle transport in the core, and are determined by field shape and perturbation strength.
