Title: Stability analysis of cylindrical Vlasov equilibria

Technical Report ·
DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/5467007· OSTI ID:5467007

A method is presented for the fully kinetic, nonlocal stability analysis of cylindrically symmetric equilibria. Applications to the lower hybrid drift instability and the modes associated with a finite-width relativistic E-layer are discussed.
