On the stability of an accretion disc containing a toroidal magnetic field: The effect of resistivity

We extend a previous study of the global stability of a stratified differentially rotating disc containing a toroidal magnetic field to include the effect of a non-zero resistivity η. We consider the situation when the disc is stable to convection in the absence of the magnetic field. The most robus...
