Magnetogravitational Instability of Anisotropic Plasma with Finite Ion Larmor and Generalized Polytrope Law

Abstract

The effect of finite ion Larmor radius corrections on the propagation of small perturbations through self gravitating, anisotropic system with generalized polytrope law is investigated. The polytrope laws are considered for the pressure components in parallel and perpendicular directions to the magnetic field. The polytrope model proposed by Abraham-Shranuer can be reduced to CGL equations with double adiabatic equations of state and MHD set of equations with isothermal equation of state. The effects of FLR and polytrope indices are discussed on the gravitational, firehose and mirror instability. The critical Jeans wave numbers are found to depend on polytropic indices and derived for CGL and MHD cases. The FLR corrections are found effective in shorter wave length region and produce stabilizing influence. The condition of mirror instability is uninfluenced by FLR but dependent on polytropic indices.
