We have investigated Kelvin-Helmholtz (K-H) instabilities for a homogeneous compressible plasma containing a uniform magnetic field and a linear velocity shear. A derivation of the relevant K-H...doi:10.1007/978-94-009-6520-1_40Ray, T. P....
We investigate the conditions under which the fluting (m=2), m=3, and m=12 magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) modes in a uniformly twisted flux tube moving along its axis become unstable in order to model the Kelvin–Helmholtz (KH) instability in a twisting solar coronal hole jet near the northern...
Kelvin Helmholtz instability (KHI) is most likely to be the primary source for clear-air turbulence that is of importance in pollution transfer and diffusion and aircraft safety. It is exemplarily indicated by the critical value of Richardson (Ri) number, which is typically taken a...
Kelvin-Helmholtz instabilityLaser plasmaA Kelvin-Helmholtz instability (KHI) is a fundamental physical process of fluids and magnetized plasma. We report the experimental formation of a KHI produced by intense laser-driven thin plastic foils. For an external magnetic field in different directions, the...
After a discussion of the physical processes behind each instability we look at the general framework behind the study of ideal MHD instabilities, providing a detailed look at the derivation of the dispersion relation for a simple model. Extensions to this model are presented, including an ...
