Abstract

It is pointed out that the Okuda–Dawson mode can couple with the newly proposed current-driven wave. It is also shown that the Shukla–Varma mode can couple with these waves if the density inhomogeneity is taken into account in a plasma containing stationary dust particles. A comparison of several low-frequency electrostatic waves and instabilities driven by shear current and shear plasma flow in an electron–ion plasma with and without stationary dust is also presented.
