      The effect of an aligned magnetic field and rotation on the nonlinear instability of a rotating conducting plasma is considered. The flow variables are expanded in powers of \(\epsilon\) and the governing equations and boundary conditions have been written down for the first order and second order problem. The solution thus found for the nonlinear problem would throw more light if the convergence and order of magnitude estimation are also undertaken. Graphical representation of the results would have been more illuminating.
