Abstract
The occurrence conditions of the condensation instability in heat-releasing partially ionized plasma in an external magnetic field with an induction vector normal to the direction along which a perturbation occurs are considered. Linear equations describing isobaric perturbation dynamics in the two-liquid plasma model are derived. Using these equations, a dispersion relation for condensation modes is derived and their time increments are calculated for various degrees of plasma ionization and magnetic fields.
