where ''φ'' and ''θ'' are the [[Toroidal coordinates|toroidal and poloidal angles]], respectively.  
where ''φ'' and ''θ'' are the [[Toroidal coordinates|toroidal and poloidal angles]], respectively.  
Thus ''q = m/n = dφ/dθ'' can be approximated by
Thus ''q = m/n = <d&phi;/d&theta;>'' can be approximated by


:<math>q \simeq \frac{r B_\phi}{R B_\theta}</math>
