The ion cyclotron instabilities in the PHOENIX high energy injection mirror machine have been suppressed by applying oscillating electric fields. Two instabilities appear to be present. One is suppressed by energy spreading and the suppression of the other appears to be due to the effect of the applied electric fields on the electrons.
