Abstract
An analytic study of the stability of a straight diffuse high beta stellarator with arbitrary wall corrugation is presented. It is found that a solvability condition for the equilibrium of such a plasma is intimately related to a sufficient condition for stability. The results of the calculation suggest that if the equilibrium model is valid, then all high beta stellarators are unstable.
