Scientific paper

The dispersion relation for drift-Alfvén waves in two-component (cold and hot), high β inhomogeneous multispecies plasma containing protons, oxygen, and sulphur ions is solved numerically. The magnetic field is assumed to have a gradient in simple slab geometry configuration. The plasma ion composition consists of H, O, S, SO2, and Na ions. The effect of heavy ions and multiple charge states (Z > 1) on the growth rates has been numerically estimated for assumed ion compositions. The numerical calculations of growth rates also have been performed by using ion composition and plasma parameters based on Voyager spacecraft in the magnetospheres of Jupiter and Saturn.
