Scientific paper

It is known that an internal Tokamak disruption leads to a current
profile which is flattened inside the surface when the safety factor
equals unity. It is shown that such a profile can lead to m = 2 magnetic
islands which grow to fill a substantial part of the Tokamak cross
section in a time consistent with the observation of a major disruption.
