Abstract

The explicit stability threshold of the toroidal ion temperature gradient mode instability is analytically derived using the standard reactive fluid model. It is shown that in the peak density region, the threshold gets significantly smaller due to finite ion Larmor radius effects, and the marginal unstable modes acquire finite wavelengths.
