Plasma instability

Below is a list of instabilities relevant to fusion plasmas (to be completed). Instabilities are often referred to as 'modes'. Each item should be elaborated on a corresponding page.

• Alfvén eigenmode
• Ballooning instability
• Drift wave instability
• Edge Localized Modes
• Electron Temperature Gradient instability
• Flute instability
• Geodesic Acoustic Mode
• Interchange instability
• Ion Temperature Gradient instability
• Kink instability
• Sausage instability
• Tearing mode instability, see also Magnetic island
• Whistler modes
