The effects of a horizontal magnetic field on the Rayleigh–Taylor instability

The stability of a thin conductive liquid film flowing along a solid wall is an important problem that occurs in many proposed fusion device designs. In this paper we investigate the linear stability of an electrically conductive liquid film of finite thickness in the presence of a strong magnetic f...
