Abstract
The aim of this paper is to give a result concerning the stability properties of the solutions of magnetohydrodynamics equations at small but finite Reynolds numbers. These solutions are found using the alpha-effect: this method gives us solutions which are highly oscillating spatially on the scale of the underlying flow but are growing on a larger scale depending on a parameter epsilon. We prove nonlinear stability and instability results for a dense subset of initial velocity field of the flow at given Reynolds number.
