Abstract
The kinetic theory of electric fluctuations in a collisional weakly ionized dusty plasma is formulated with due regard to the grain charging dynamics. The correlation functions of electron and ion density are obtained by considering their collisions with neutrals described within the Bhatnagar-Gross-Krook model. The electron density correlation spectra in isothermal and nonisothermal plasma are calculated for various values of grain density, grain size, and ion collisionality.
