Overstable Modes due to Resistivity Gradients in a Current‐Carrying Plasma Slab

A preliminary study is made of overstable modes due to resistivity gradients in a current‐carrying plasma slab. A restricted set of solutions satisfying a constant pressure assumption is found for the magnetohydrodynamic equations. These solutions turn out to be overstable in a certain range of the...

Zusammenfassung:A preliminary study is made of overstable modes due to resistivity gradients in a current‐carrying plasma slab. A restricted set of solutions satisfying a constant pressure assumption is found for the magnetohydrodynamic equations. These solutions turn out to be overstable in a certain range of the resistivity.
