Abstract

Current driven electrostatic ion cyclotron instability has been studied for parallel flowv elocity shear with perpendicular a.c. electric field to the ambient magnetic field for bi-Maxwellian density drift distribution function. The method adopted for expression for dispersion relation and growth rate is kinetic approach and method of characteristic solution for ionospheric plasma. The effect of a.c. frequency, density gradient, and velocity shear scale length has been discussed.
