Description
Properties of radiation-condensation instability in a partially-ionized self-gravitating dusty astrophysical plasmas are studied. For this purpose, new dispersion relations for coupled dusty plasma and condensation modes in both unmagnetized and magnetized plasmas are derived. The dispersion relations are numerically analyzed to investigate the interplay between self-gravitation and impurity losses, as well as to study the effects of the external magnetic field and finite plasma beta on instabilities we found
