At higher pressures there is evidence of near-resonant flux surface deformations which may lead to an equilibrium limit. A reconnected equilibrium at still higher pressures exhibits a double island structure which is similar t homoclinic phase portraits which have been observed after separatrix reconnection in Hamiltonian systems.}, title = {Evolution of Magnetic Islands in a Heliac}, year = {1994} }
