Scientific paper

Results of a three-dimensional linear analysis of the magnetohydrodynamic Kelvin-Helmholtz instability in the magnetosphere-ionosphere coupled system are reported. The results demonstrate the stabilizing influence of the ionospheric line-tying on the Kelvin-Helmholtz instability. However, the ionospheric stabilization can be insignificant when the eigenmode of the flow perturbation has nodes in the ionospheric boundaries.
