Scientific paper

The stability of a plasma consisting of two unequal isotropic ion beams streaming along a uniform magnetic field has been investigated by numerically solving the full electromagnetic Vlasov linear-dispersion relation for high-beta plasmas. Three instabilities are found; one is closely associated with the usual Alfven mode and the two others with the 'fast' or magnetosonic mode. The importance of these instabilities for certain neutral-beam-injection experiments and in the solar wind is emphasized.
