Abstract | Using a compressible magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) simulation method, the coupling mode between Kelvin-Helmholtz (K-H) and resistive instabilities has been investigated. It is found that, in compressible plasmas, the coupling mode can take place in a limited range of ambient shear flow velocity, beyond which the coupling mode is stabilized. The flow shear can significantly enhance the growth of the coupling mode. Only in a narrow range of plasma beta, could the coupling mode occur. It is deduced that this kind of coupling mode may appear at Earth's magnetopause. |
