Instabilities and transport in magnetized plasmas
… collisional (fluid) magnetized magnetorotational instability (MRI) in the presence of the Braginskii viscosity. We conduct a global linear analysis of the instability in a galactic rotation profile for three magnetic field configurations: purely azimuthal, purely vertical and slightly pitched. Our …

Solar wind plasma : kinetic properties and micro-instabilities
… kinetic timescales by the mirror, cyclotron, and firehose plasma micro-instabilities. Electromagnetic fluctuations generated by growing mirror and cyclotron modes are detected in the solar wind. The first detailed observations of the firehose instability are presented. The limiting bounds to Rp …
