This lecture delves into the study of microinstabilities in magnetized plasmas, focusing on drift waves and instabilities resulting from resonant wave-particle interaction. It covers Ion Temperature Gradient Instability (ITG) and Electron Temperature Gradient (ETG) instability, crucial for turbulent transport in magnetic fusion devices at ion and electron scales, respectively.
