The growth rate of tilting instability decreases as the beta value at magnetic separatrix brta_sp increases, while it is slightly affected by the finite-Larmor radius parameters bar{s} and the hollowness parameter of an equilibrium current profile D under the condition that beta_sp is less than 0.1. It is found that the number flux of ions crossing the separatrix repeatedly increases with increasing beta_sp and the crossing motion of energetic ions plays a role in leading to the tilt stabilization by disturbing the unstable tilting motion."}, title = {Tilt Stabilization by Energetic Ions Crossing Magnetic Separatrix in Field-Reversed Configuration}, year = {1997} }
