Electrothermal instability — NOTOC The electrothermal instability (also known as the ionization instability or Velikhov instability in the literature) is a magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) instability appearing in magnetized non thermal plasmas used in MHD converters. It was first… … Wikipedia
Negative bias temperature instability — (NBTI) is a key reliability issue in MOSFETs. It is of immediate concern in p channel MOS devices, since they almost always operate with negative gate to source voltage; however, the very same mechanism affects also nMOS transistors when biased… … Wikipedia
Birkeland current — Schmatic of the Birkeland or Field Aligned Currents and the ionospheric current systems they connect to.[1] A Birkeland current is a set of currents which flow along geomagnetic field line connecting the Earth’s magnetosphere to the Earth s hi … Wikipedia
Weibel instability — The Weibel instability is a plasma instability present in homogeneous or nearly homogeneous electromagnetic plasmas which possess an anisotropy in momentum (velocity) space. In the linear limit the instability causes exponential growth of… … Wikipedia
Two stream instability — The two stream instability is a very common instability in plasma physics. It can be induced by an energetic particle stream injected in a plasma, or setting a current along the plasma so different species (ions and electrons) can have different… … Wikipedia
Two-stream instability — The two stream instability is a very common instability in plasma physics. It can be induced by an energetic particle stream injected in a plasma, or setting a current along the plasma so different species (ions and electrons) can have different… … Wikipedia
Guinea Current — The Guinea Current is a slow warm water current that flows easterly along the Guinea coast of West Africa.Socrates, who lived from about 470 399 BC, was the first to incorrectly suggest that the ocean currents, varying sea water temperatures, and … Wikipedia
Turbidity current — A turbidity current or density current is a current of rapidly moving, sediment laden water moving down a slope through air, water, or another fluid. The current moves because it has a higher density and turbidity than the fluid through which it… … Wikipedia
