Description

The modified Simon-Hoh Instability (MSHI) in an inhomogeneous plasma in presence of charged dust grains is investigated where the ions and dust are unmagnetized but electrons are strongly magnetized. Our dispersion relation matches exactly to the dispersion equation (18) of Sakawa et al.15, when we withdraw the contribution of dust grains from our expression. The growth rates of MSHI in presence of dust grains, shows either comparable or lower than that of dust free plasma.
