Notes:
A unified theory of temperature gradient-driven trapped ion modes and ballooning instabilities is developed using kinetic theory in banana regimes. All known results such as electrostatic and purely magnetic trapped particle modes and ideal magnetohydrodynamic ballooning modes (or shear Alfvén waves) are readily derived from the present single general dispersion relation. Several new results from ion–ion collision, finite beta stabilization of ion temperature gradient-driven trapped particle modes, and trapped particle modification of ballooning modes are derived and discussed. The interrelationship between these modes is established.
