Abstract
The formalism for internal ballooning modes in a tokamak is extended to retain the strong radial variation of the ion diamagnetic drift frequency characteristic of edge plasmas in the pedestal region. The resulting finite Larmor radius (FLR) stabilization is modified and can be weaker than in the case of constant diamagnetic frequency.
