Abstract
⺠We study the gravitational stability of a homogeneous resistive magnetized plasma. ⺠The critical scale for collapse depends on direction. ⺠The magnetic pressure contrasts the gravitational force orthogonally to the B-field. ⺠However a high resistivity cancels the stabilizing effect of magnetic pressure.
