摘要：

Thermal stabilization of the modified ordinary (MO) wave propagating across an external magnetic field in a two-stream electron plasma is studied. It is found that temperature (1) increases the threshold of the relative streaming velocity below which the wave is stable, (2) imposes an upper limit on the spectrum of unstable wave numbers, and (3) reduces the growth rate. Discussion is given on the physical mechanism of the instability. © 1969 The American Physical Society.
