Dust charge fluctuations in a magnetized dusty plasma.
Charging currents of electrons and ions to a spherical dust grain in a uniform magnetized dusty plasma have been examined. It is found that the external magnetic field reduces the charging currents, thereby decreasing the dust charge fluctuation damping of a low-frequency electrostatic wave in a dusty plasma.
