On the kelvin-Helmholtz instability of the Earth's magnetopause
摘要：
The effect of the finite thickness of the shear layer on the Kelvin-Helmholtz instability of the Earth's magnetopause boundary is investigated. The thickness of the layer stabilizes the boundary with respect to short wavelength perturbations, which were previously found to be unstable in the zero thickness analysis. Compressibility effects further stabilize the layer. The effects of the magnetic field on the instability are also discussed.
