Abstract
A diffusion model for turbulent mix [C. Cherfils and K. O. Mikaelian, Phys. Fluids 8, 522 (1996)] is compared with recent two-dimensional magnetohydrodynamic simulations by Huba [Phys. Plasmas 3, 2523 (1996)]. The model accounts for density gradient stabilization and for finite Larmor radius stabilization, thus suppressing the Rayleigh–Taylor mixing width to below its classical value. The model, which has no free parameters, appears to be in good agreement with Huba’s numerical simulations.
