DRIFT-WAVE INSTABILITY AND ANOMALOUS PARTICLE-TRANSPORT IN COLLISIONAL PLASMAS WITH HIGH-Z DUST IMPURITIES

The resistive drift wave instability is examined in the presence of st atic charged dust grains. It is found that drift waves can become unst able on account of free energy stored in the equilibrium dust and ion density gradients in collisional dusty plasmas. Nonthermal resistive d rift waves can cause anomalous particle transport.
