چکیده

The present work investigates the parametric instability of parallel propagating circularly polarized Alfvén pump waves in a collisional dusty plasma. It is demonstrated that the relative drift between the charged dust and the electrons and ions gives rise to the Hall effect resulting in the modified pump wave characteristics. Although the linearized fluid equations with periodic coefficients are difficult to solve analytically, it is shown that a linear transformation can remove the periodic dependence. The resulting linearized equations with constant coefficients are used to derive an algebraic dispersion relation. The growth rate of the parametric instability is a sensitive function of the amplitude of the pump wave as well as to the ratio of the pump and the dust-cyclotron frequencies. The instability is insensitive to the plasma-beta parameter. The possible application of the result in the astrophysical context is discussed. © 2007 American Institute of Physics.

Current-Driven Dust Ion-Acoustic Instability in a Collisional Dusty Plasma - Plasma Science, IEEE Transactions on

A fluid analysis of the excitation of dust ion-acoustic (DIA) waves in a collisional dusty plasma is presented. The DIA waves are excited by a relative drift of the electrons and ions produced by a steady-state electric field applied to the plasma. The DIA instability is more easily excited if the relative concentration of negatively charged dust is increased.

Theoretical Investigation of Langmuir Wave Instability in Irradiated Dusty Plasmas

Instability of high frequency wave, such as, Langmuir wave (LW) is studied using fluid model in collisional and streaming dusty plasma with dust charge fluctuation. In irradiated dusty plasma, dust charge fluctuation is considered to be due to the combined effect of LW perturbation and photoelectron emission. The piled up electrons on a dust grain due to LW perturbation can be swept out by phot...
