Popis: | The effect of viscosity on the stability of a non-neutral plasma is studied. Stability boundaries are obtained for two-dimensional electrostatic perturbations of long wavelengths. It is shown that a configuration with a monotone decreasing number density profile can be unstable when the plasma has viscosity. |
