Stability of a magnetized plasma with skin current, characterized by nonuniformity of the current and the electron temperature, is analyzed for perturbations with frequency and growth rate higher than the ion gyrofrequency. New instabilities due to the electron temperature gradient are found in both ion and electron acoustic branches, important for experiments with turbulent heating. The ion-acoustic instability observed in experiments leads to a Bohm-like turbulent thermal conductivity. The theoretical results, both linear and nonlinear, agree well with experiment.
