Scientific paper

The stability characteristics of parallel magnetic fields when fluid motions are present along the lines of force is studied. The stability criterion for both symmetric (m = 0) and asymmetric (m = 1) modes are discussed and the results obtained by Trehan and Singh (1978) are amended in the present study. The results obtained for the cylindrical geometry are shown to play an important role for ka less than 4, where k is the wave number, a is the radius of the cylinder, compared to the results obtained by Geronicolas (1977) for the slab geometry.
