Electron shear-flow-driven instability in magnetized plasmas with magnetic field gradient

Saleem, Hamid and Eliasson, Bengt (2011) Electron shear-flow-driven instability in magnetized plasmas with magnetic field gradient. Physics of Plasmas, 18 (5). 052103. ISSN 1070-664X (https://doi.org/10.1063/1.3571630)

Abstract

It is found that the zero-order current associated with electron shear flow produces a drift wave in magnetized plasmas, which can become unstable under certain conditions. This wave will be particularly important in low density and low temperature plasmas of heavy ions. As an example, numerical estimates are presented for a barium plasma with parameters compatible with experiments.
