    Description: Equilibria of low free energy have been constructed for magnetotail plasmas (Bhattacharjee, 1987). This model is extended to obtain axisymmetric states which have the structure of flux ropes containing field-aligned currents. An interesting feature of these equilibria is a chain of magnetic islands along the tail axis. Theoretical results are compared with observations from ISEE 1 and ISEE 2 on flux ropes (Elphic et al., 1986).

    Description: A WKB theory is formulated for large-n ballooning modes in axisymmetric, toroidal plasmas with sheared equilibrium flows. The validity of the standard ballooning respresentation is severely restricted in the presence of sheared toroidal flow, despite the fact that to leading order in (1/n), where n is the azimuthal number, the eigenmode equation contains only derivatives along a field line. Necessary and sufficient conditions for stability are obtained in a high-beta ordering for rigid toroidal rotation as well as field-aligned flows.
