Introduction to MHD Instabilities
Fusion Science and Technology, 1998In this paper we will discuss the theoretical framework of ideal MHD stability. We first show that the Alfven wave is of central importance for the understanding of macroscopic plasma dynamics and, hence, of MHD stability. Then we introduce the elements of spectral theory needed for our study, and next we apply these methods to inhomogeneous plasmas in

Plasma Physics and Controlled Fusion, 1986 Reviews recent developments in the theory of MHD waves in connection with radio-frequency heating in the Alfven wave and ion cyclotron ranges of frequencies (AWRF, ICRF). The account focuses on the discussion of full wave solutions and the oscillation spectra in bounded, generally inhomogeneous, plasmas. Original results are presented concerning forced

Instability of MHD Motion and Astrophysical MHD Turbulence
2012Let us define the stable states as such medium motion or rest states, in which small random perturbations of macroscopic parameters do not increase, while they can oscillate with some damping rate and so eventually dissipate. In astrophysics, however, there are numerous examples of the states, which are not stable.

, 2000 A plasma is a conducting fluid, gas or liquid. The plasma state is found in nature under a wide variety of different physical conditions, very dense or very tenuous, very hot or cold. Ionization, total or partial, allows for electric current conduction.

Toroidal Theory of MHD Instabilities
Fusion Technology, 1998We continue with the adventures of the Alfven wave and its two magnetosonic companions as they travel in the curved space of magnetic surfaces and field lines (Sec. 2), find themselves trapped in singularities of an unprecedented richness (Sec. 3), decide to get themselves better maps of the landscape to do the required twisting while some of their ...
