On local analysis of instability by magnetic buoyancy
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 20 April 2006
Abstract
Moffatt's (1978) model for instability, by magnetic buoyancy, of a rotating layer of compressible fluid is extended to demonstrate that local stability analysis, theoretically valid for only a shallow layer, can still be useful for predicting instability when the layer is deep.
