Small helical fields have been added to the main compression field of a 3-m long theta pinch, both by grooving the main compression coil and by adding helical windings driven by capacitor banks. The equilibrium and stability of the theta-pinch plasma column and the interference force produced by a combination of helical fields have been studied and are found to be in agreement with theory.
