Scalings for the Alfven-cyclotron instability: Linear dispersion theory and hybrid particle-in-cell simulations
(2020-06-01)
The Alfven-cyclotron instability is driven by an ion temperature anisotropy such that T-perpendicular to/T-|| >1 where and || denote directions perpendicular and parallel to a uniform background magnetic field B-o, ...
