Scientific paper

The Kelvin-Helmholtz instabilities in an axisymmetric configuration with a magnetic field are seen to produce a dispersion relation that can be solved using a numerical routine when the wavelengths are shorter than the jet radius. The following questions are answered: Are the helical and flute instabilities more unstable than the pinching instabilities?; Do the parallel and perpendicular magnetic field configurations have any relevant effect?; What are the consequences of radiation pressure fluids that seem to exist at critical situations such as funnels and VLBI jets?; What is the role of the new instabilities in a magnetism dominated turbulent cascade? Conclusions are given, drawn from an analysis of 'top hat' instabilities.
