The Ideal

Finite wavelength guiding centre plasma stability of the bumpy θ-pinch is examined by a normal mode analysis. It is shown that previous bumpy θ-pinch calculations are recoverable as special cases of this analysis. The ideal magnetohydrodynamic and guiding centre plasma growth rates are compared for various pressure anisotropies and for various wavenumbers of the field line bumpiness. The well-posedness conditions on the guiding centre plasma equations are shown to give upper and lower bounds on the permissible pressure anisotropy which corresponds to the Aifvén continuum staying on the stable side of the spectrum and to the particle mirror force not having a singularity. It is also found that the higher azimuthal m ≥ 2 modes have growth rates larger than the m = 1 mode.
