On the velocity shear direction symmetry breaking mechanism in the Rayleigh-Taylor instability

Description

A small-parametric model (of Lorentz type) is offered. It enables to describe the effect of generation of a sheared flow in plasma or fluid due to the Rayleigh-Taylor instability growth. The effect of the sign asymmetry of the generated flow velocity shear and that of the electric field is interpreted within the framework of the model suggested
