Destabilizing effect of shear and maximum pressure of plasma in a tokamak
An analytic criterion is obtained for the stability of a plasma to ballooning modes. It takes into account two new physical effects, namely destabilization due to crossing of the flute-oscillation branches, and the balloon effect due to the shear.
