Abstract
In this paper the stability of long scale vortex flows to secondary perturbations with short parallel wavelength is analyzed. It is demonstrated that flow ellipticity can drive secondary instabilities of ion-acoustic and shear Alfven waves provided certain resonance conditions between the rotation speed and the Doppler shifted secondary wave frequency are satisfied. Such secondary processes can act as a major sink of energy and may help in our understanding of nonlinear saturation of low frequency instabilities.
