Description
An electromagnetic instability leading to filamentation of the current flowing along a magnetic field in a highly resistive plasma is investigated. The instability provides a possible explanation of the discrepancy that exists between turbulent-heating experiments and numerical simulations of the electrostatic parallel-field current-driven instability
