Spatially resolved density fluctuation measurements in the dc frequency range up to 500 kHz have been conducted on the ELMO Bumpy Torus (EBT-I) plasma using photodetectors and Langmuir probes. Plasma currents produced by microwave-heated hot electron annuli were found to reduce fluctuations of toroidal plasma to low levels. The mechanism of stabilization has been studied in detail. Large amplitude fluctuations that accompany the hot electron annuli that destroy a stable plasma confinement were observed at low neutral pressure.
