Abstract

I investigate the two-ion hybrid resonance for a warm, collisonless plasma and find an approximate dispersion relation appropriate for a toroidal fusion plasma. The fast Alfv\'en wave propagates on both sides of the resonance, so the tunneling factor is calculated and for fusion plasmas it is found that fast waves incident from the high-magnetic-field side will undergo mode conversion to an ion-Bernstein mode and those incident from the low-field side will be reflected.
