Popis: | A low frequency electrostatic instability in toroidal geometry is analysed with the two fluid equations. This instability is driven by the charge separation of plasma due to the toroidicity. The growth rate is largest when the parallel wave number is zero. This instability indicates an oscillation of poloidal mode numbers m =4, 3, 2 on the rational surfaces q =4, 3, 2 in tokamaks. |
