Current-less solar wind driven dust acoustic instability in cometary plasma

Plasma Physics 2015-05-30 v1 Solar and Stellar Astrophysics

Abstract

A quantitative analysis is presented of the dust acoustic wave instability driven by the solar and stellar winds. This is a current-less kinetic instability which develops in permeating plasmas, i.e.., when one quasi-neutral electron-ion wind plasma in its propagation penetrates through another quasi-neutral plasma which contains dust, electrons and ions.
