Drastic changes of radial electric field between positive and negative states occur in 50 mu s at shortest, which is much shorter than the energy confinement time scale of about a few milliseconds. Nonlinear relation between the radial electric field and radial current is obtained. This is the first experimental observation of a spontaneous transition based on an electric field bifurcation in microseconds order in toroidal helical plasmas.}, title = {Dynamic Behavior of Potential in the Plasma Core of the CHS Heliotron/Torsatron}, year = {1997} }
