Alfv{acute e}n surface waves in a magnetized dusty plasma
- Department of Theoretical Physics and Research Centre for Theoretical Astrophysics, School of Physics, The University of Sydney, New South Wales 2006 (Australia)
Surface wave propagation in a dusty magnetized plasma at frequencies below and of the order of the ion-cyclotron frequency, but well above the dust cyclotron frequency, is considered. The dust grains are assumed to be stationary, but to carry a proportion of the negative charge of the plasma. The dispersion relation for surface waves propagating on an interface between a dusty plasma and a vacuum is derived and discussed. The damping of the waves due to Alfv{acute e}n resonance absorption in a narrow but non-zero width interface is derived. {copyright} {ital 1996 American Institute of Physics.}
