The problem of thermal-convective instability of a stellar atmosphere is considered to include the effects due to rotation and Hall currents in the presence of a uniform vertical magnetic field The criterion for monotonic instability is found to be unchanged by the presence of rotation and Hall effects.

The thermal-convective instability of a stellar atmosphere in the presence of stable solute gradient in Stern’s type configuration is studied in the presence of radiative transfer effect. A criterion for monotonic instability is obtained in terms of the source functions S. The criterion for monotonic instability is found to be unchanged in the presence of radiative transfer and rotation effects. The problem of thermosolutal-convective instability of a hydromagnetic composite medium is also studied to include the frictional effects with neutrals. The criterion derived for monotonic instability in terms of heat-loss function is found to be the same in the presence or absence of the collisional effects.
