| Abstract: | The thermal instability of a compressible plasma in the presence of a uniform vertical magnetic field is studied to include the effects of finiteness of the ion Larmor radius. When the instability sets in as stationary convection, both the compressibility and the finite Larmor radius are found to have stabilizing effect. The sufficient conditions for the nonexistence of overstability are investigated. |
