We consider the relativistic Vlasov-Maxwell system of equations which
describes the evolution of a collisionless charged plasma. We show
that under rather general conditions, one can test for linear
instability by checking the spectral properties of Schrodinger-type
operators that act only on the spatial variable, not the full phase
space. This extends previous results that show linear and nonlinear
stability and instability in more restrictive settings.
