Abstract
The stability characteristics of resistive ballooning modes are examin ed near a tokamak edge region by including the effects of resistivity gradients. It is shown that the growth rates of electrostatic and DELT A'-driven resistive ballooning modes are enhanced, due to parity-mixin g effects arising through a linear coupling to rippling modes.
