Inhomogeneous Energy - Density Driven Instability in Presence of a Transverse DC Electric Fields in a Magnetized Plasma Cylinder

arXiv:physics/0410142

Abstract

Temporal evolution of the inhomogeneous energy density driven instability (IEDDI) is examined in presence of a nonuniform transverse dc electric field in collisional magnetized plasma cylinder. Using experimentally known parameters relevant to IEDDI, we have estimated the growth rate for =1, 2 and 3 nonlocal eigenmodes.
