Magnetohydrodynamics
Plasma instabilities refer to fluctuations or disturbances in the behavior of plasma that can lead to significant changes in its structure and dynamics. These instabilities are crucial in understanding the stability of magnetically confined plasmas, such as those found in fusion reactors and astrophysical phenomena, where they can impact energy confinement and particle behavior.
congrats on reading the definition of plasma instabilities. now let's actually learn it.
