The positive radial electric field drives spontaneous flow in the counter direction at the plasma edge and in the co-direction near the magnetic axis. The difference in the direction of spontaneous flow between the core and the edge is considered to be due to the difference in a ratio of the helical ripple to the toroidal ripple. Ion temperature gradient causes the spontaneous toroidal flow is clearly observed and becomes one of a dominant component of the toroidal flows in the high ion temperature discharges in LHD.}, title = {Observations of Spontaneous Toroidal Flow on LHD}, year = {2008} }
