Stability criterion for the non-Maxwellian permeating plasma

Employing Vlasov-Poisson model for nonthermal distributed permeating plasma consisting of electron-positron-ion plasma of our earth’s magnetosphere and the solar wind plasma with some fixed streaming velocity, can drive ion-acoustic waves unstable. The growth rates are computed with respect to the variation in spectral index of the kappa or generalized Lorentzian distribution and streaming velocity of the solar wind. It is found that the growth rate increases with the decrease of spectral index and increases with the streaming velocity of the solar wind. The numerical results are also presented by choosing some suitable parameters.
