Abstract
Electron drift surfaces have been measured using beam mapping method i n Compact auburn Torsatron. The electron beams with the energy 0.1 keV less than or equal to E less than or equal to 2 keV are launched para llel to the toroidal magnetic field of B = (0.04 similar to 0.05) T. S hift of the drift surface from magnetic surface is measured as a funct ion of beam energy which shows an agreement with a theoretical predict ion. Behavior of drift orbits near magnetic islands has been also inve stigated.
