Abstract
Thermosolutal-convective instability of a stellar atmosphere is considered in the presence of suspended particles. The criteria for monotonic instability are derived which are found to hold good in the presence of uniform rotation and uniform magnetic field, separately, on the thermosolutal-convective instability in the presence of suspended particles.
