Magneto-Hydrostatics of Stellar Atmospheres: I. The Stability of the Axially Symmetric Case

Year: 1960

Type: article

Abstract: The equation governing a small perturbation in a rotating stellar atmosphere under gravity with an axially symmetric magnetic field, whose lines of force are confined to the meridional planes, is set up. A sufficient condition for stability is found to be that a certain quadratic form is positive definite.
