I have done teh stability of detonation (reacting flows).
For the last decade, I switched to electromagnetic waves.
But, I follow the methods that I I have meployed for my JFM paper.
I am now pretty comfortable with Maxwell equations for electromagnetic waves.
I expect that your work is interesting since you deal both stabilty and electrodynamics.
I hope to get in a furthe rtouch with you.
