Rotationally driven modes of long systems with dominantly axial magnetic field are considered. We apply the incompressible model and order axial wavenumber small. A recently developed gyro-viscous model is incorporated. A one-dimensional equilibrium is assumed, but radial profiles are arbitrary.

Gyroviscous (GV) stress for weakly magnetized plasma has been implemented in the NIMROD code to study Hall and FLR effects on FRC stability with emphasis on the rotational modes.
