Abstract
The stability of electron temperature gradient driven modes in a collisionless plasma with magnetic shear has been studied. Two coupled integral equations for the electrostatic and vector potentials have been solved numerically. The properties of these modes derived on the basis of numerical investigation have been utilized to estimate the anomalous electron transport induced by them.Keywords
