Description

The effects of self-gravity of a dusty plasma on the Alfven and compressive resonance absorption processes are investigated. It is found that self-gravity can lead to considerable modification of the resonance processes, with removal of the resonances in some circumstances. These results are applicable to interstellar clouds and star-formation regions
