Abstract
A dispersion relation for the capillary oscillations of a charged spherical drop of a viscous incompressible finite-conductivity liquid is derived and analyzed. It is found that electric currents inside the charged drop equalize its potential and produce liquid flows interacting with both potential and eddy poloidal liquid flows inside the drop that are due to drop oscillations. Taking into account the finiteness of the rate of potential equalization over the drop surface leads to an additional damping of the capillary oscillations that arises because of the increased role of energy dissipation.
