tion in medium with dispersion properties exhibits amplitude modulation

                   caused by medium nonlinearity and carrier wave self-interaction. Later, ef-

                   fects of plasma parameters on acoustic wave modulation stability in warm
                   plasma have been studied by Chawla et al.[134]. They found that, the in-

                   stability regions are shifted with the wave number. On the other hand, the

                   conditions for instability regions and rational solution of the NLS equation

                   have been obtained in auroral zone plasma [135]. Nonlinear modulation
                   electrostatic and electromagnetic wave packets in laboratory and astro-

                   physics have been discussed [143]. Our aim in the present chapter is to

                   study the MI of a two-temperature dusty plasma with nonthermal elec-
                   trons, and inspecting the dark and bright envelope solitons.

                   dust temperatures (charges) on MI and the envelope soliton formation, via

                   equation (2.16); namely
