Experiments were conducted in the ELMO Bumpy Torus (EBT) from 1973 until 1984. A number of papers have been published concerning various aspects of experiments during the final two years of operation. The paper summarizes the final experimental conclusions and discusses those issues which remain unresolved. The main conclusions are as follows: (1) measurements of the width of the hot electron rings showed them to be wider than previously suspected, diluting their diamagnetism and negating their ability to locally reverse the magnetic field gradient; (2) two-dimensional plots of the plasma potential revealed open potential contours in the C-mode and closed potential contours near the plasma centre in the T-mode; (3) an in-out asymmetry in the plasma potential was always observed, giving rise to electric fields which drove convective plasma loss. |
