Discharges with improved plasma confinement in a high pinch parameter region ( Theta ~2) have been discovered in the TPE-1RMSO reversed field pinch experiment. These discharges become possible with careful control of the waveforms of the plasma current and the toroidal magnetic field after intensive discharge cleaning and are called the `Improved High Theta Mode' (IHTM). In these discharges the increase of electron density is distinct when compared with low Theta cases (~1.55). The electron temperature increases slightly with Theta but the ion temperature remains almost constant. Consequently, the poloidal beta increases, from 8% at Theta ~1.55 to 18% at Theta ~2.0, and the energy confinement time increases from 0.2 to 0.4 ms. The fluctuation level of the magnetic field corresponding to the dynamo activities is reduced by about a factor of 3 in IHTM, which may explain this improvement. Possible causes of IHTM are discussed. It is found that the m=1 mode rotates continuously during IHTM, while it always stops rotating just before a large soft X-ray emission crash occurs

高ピンチパラメータ領域(Θ〜2)における閉じ込めの改善を伴う放電が、TPE-1RMSO逆転磁場ピンチ実験装置において発見された。これらの放電は、強力な放電洗浄後にプラズマ電流とトロイダル磁場の波形を注意深く制御することによって実現され、「高Θモード」(IHTM)と名付けられた。これらの放電では、低Θの場合(〜1.55)と比較して電子密度の増加が顕著である。電子温度はΘとともにわずかに上昇するが、イオン温度はほぼ一定に保たれる。その結果、ポロイダルベータ値はΘ〜1.55での8%からΘ〜2.0での18%へと増加し、エネルギー閉じ込め時間は0.2msから0.4msへと延びる。ダイナモ活動に対応する磁場の変動レベルはIHTMにおいて約3分の1に低減されており、これが閉じ込め改善の原因と考えられる。IHTMの考えられる原因について議論する。IHTM中はm=1モードが連続的に回転を続ける一方、大きな軟X線放出クラッシュの直前に常に回転が停止することが見出された。
