The Rayleigh—Taylor instability is studied by means of a slab model and when slab thickness D is comparable to the ablation-to-critical surface distance. Under these conditions the perturbations originating at the ablation front reach the critical surface, and in order to determine the instability growth rate, we must impose boundary conditions at the corona. Stabilization occurs for perturbation wave numbers such that kD ˜ 10.
