Abstract

Stimulated Brillouin scattering of an electromagnetic wave is investigated analytically in a dissipative magnetized plasma in the presence of negative ions. With an increase in the number of negative ions (maintaining quasi-neutrality), it is found that the growth rate of ion-acoustic waves decreases very slowly up to 50% concentration (i.e. half of the total ionic contribution) of negative ions. Further increase in the number density of negative ions beyond 50% results in a sharp fall in growth rate.
