Abstract
Summary form only given. An effort was made to investigate how MATHEMATICA can be applied to problems associated with the analysis of plasma instabilities. Specifically, MATHEMATICA techniques were demonstrated for (1) the analytical derivation of linear plasma responses by means of perturbative solutions of partial differential equations (fluid theory): (2) the analytical solution of transcendental dispersion equations (special functions, series expansions, hierarchies of algebraic systems); (3) parametric analysis of dispersion equations by graphical and numerical methods: and (4) the flexible graphical representation of results generated by traditional numerical methods
