Abstract
By solving the dispersion relation in the ion kinetic regime, it is found that the threshold of the plasma beta value for exciting the ion-fishbone mode is lowered. Thus, for most of the present-day tokamaks where the Bussac criterion [Bussac et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 35, 1638 (1975)] is not satisfied, it will still be possible to excite the ion-fishbone mode.
