A theoretical and experimental description of the curvature-induced electrostatic interchange mode in a simple mirror confined low-β plasma is given. The frequency, growth rate , and nonflute-like effects have been measured and compared with theory. Effects due to radial electric field, finite ion Larmor radius, line-tying, wall radius, and parallel electron response are discussed.
