Numerical simulation of the lower hybrid drift instability
Description
Particle simulations of strongly inhomogeneous plasma phenomena that model theta-pinch behavior in the implosion and post-implosion phases were performed using an inhomogeneous, self-consistent Vlasov equilibrium as an initial state. In the hot ion regime a strong flute instability was observed, whose properties agree well with those predicted by the linear and nonlinear theory of the lower-hybrid-drift instability. (auth)
