Design and operation of a pulsed toroidal PIG discharge that creates an endless arc by allowing electrons to gyrate in loops is described. The magnetic field is variable up to 600 gauss with a planned capability of 2000 gauss, and the pressure is variable from 10/sup -6/ to 10/sup -2/ torr. Plasma densities above 1.6 x 10/sup 13/ have been confirmed by interferometric measurements on Ar and H plasmas. (D.C.W.)
