AbstractProperties of the coupled dust ion-acoustic drift wave instability in a radially bounded dusty magnetoplasma with an equilibrium sheared parallel ion (SPI) flow are investigated. By using the two-fluid model for the electrons and ions, a wave equation for the low-frequency coupled dust ion-acoustic drift waves in a bounded plasma with stationary charged dust grains is derived. The wave equation admits a linear dispersion relation, which exhibits that the radial boundary affects the growth rate of the coupled ion-acoustic drift wave instability which is excited by the SPI flow. The results should be relevant to dusty magnetoplasma experiments with an SPI flow.
