Stability of short-axial-wavelength internal kink modes of an anisotropic plasma
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 13 March 2009
Abstract
The double adiabatic equations are used to study the stability of a cylindrical Z-pinch with respect to small axial wavelength, internal kink (m ≥ 1) modes. It is found that marginally (ideally) unstable, isotropic equilibria are stabilized. Also, constant-current-density equilibria can be stabilized for P⊥ > P∥ and large β⊥
