The qualitative dependence on the collisionality is opposite to that in a high plasma aspect configuration; this is a quite unique property first found in the LHD. We also investigate the threshold dependence on the ion species, and find that the threshold in deuterium discharges is much smaller than that in hydrogen discharges. In all cases the thresholds are higher as the poloidal rotation becomes faster, which shows that poloidal rotation is the dominant driver to the RMP shielding. This is qualitatively consistent with the torque balance model between the electromagnetic and poloidal viscous torques. In a configuration of the LHD, the dependence of the threshold on the density is qualitatively similar to that in Ohmic tokamak plasmas, but the beta dependence is opposite to that of tokamaks. The difference arises from the cause of the viscous torque.}, title = {Dependence of the resonant magnetic perturbation penetration threshold on plasma parameters and ions in helical plasmas}, volume = {59}, year = {2019} }
