Dense, hot plasmas are susceptible to the electrothermal instability: a collisional process which permits temperature perturbations in electron currents to grow. It is shown here that linearizing a system comprised of two opposing currents and a mobile ion background as three distinct fluids yields unstable modes with rapid growth rates () for wavenumbers below a threshold . An analytical threshold condition is derived, this being surpassed for typical hot-spot and shell parameters. Particle-in-cell simulations successfully benchmark the predicted growth rates and threshold behavior. Electrothermal filamentation within the shell will impact the burn wave propagation into the cold fuel and resulting burn dynamics.
