Scientific paper

The Bergman and Lotko (1986) analysis of the linear stability of the H(+) - O(+) two-stream interactions for parallel propagating wave modes is extended to an analysis of the stability of wave modes that propagate at an angle to the terrestrial magnetic field. The analaysis provides an insight into the manner in which the oblique modes linearly couple and become unstable; the conditions under which the particular couplings are important; the qualitative behavior of the frequency, wave vector, and growth rate of the most unstable mode; and the changes to these introduced by finite ion temperatures. Consideration is also given to the relative importance of obliquely propagating and parallel propagating waves for the condition when the velocity difference between two ion beams is below the upper limit.
