Abstract
- Radiofrequency fields launched in the ion Bernstein mode in a plasma can stabilize the interchange mode by coupling it to ion Bernstein wave side-bands. A kinetic theory for non-linear coupling, based on the guiding centre formalism, is developed and conditions for stabilization are derived. Waves with ?0> ?ci, k0?vi/?ci1 are better suited for stabilization.
