Abstract

A rigorous theoretical investigation is made of obliquely propagating low-frequency electrostatic waves in a cylindrically bounded magnetized dusty plasma. A number of different modes, such as modified convective cells, coupled ion-cyclotron and dust-ion-acoustic waves, modified lower-hybrid waves, coupled dust-cyclotron and dust-acoustic waves, etc., are investigated. It is shown that the effects of the cylindrical boundary of the dusty plasma system, the external magnetic field, and the obliqueness (of the propagating modes) significantly modify the dispersion properties of these different low-frequency electrostatic waves. The implications of our results for laboratory dusty magnetoplasmas are briefly pointed out.
