Abstract
This study investigates the influence of radiation and mass concentration on Magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) flow over a moving plate with time dependent suction in an optically thin environment. By introducing fairly realistic assumptions and for a small time dependent perturbation, the concentration temperature and velocity profiles are obtained. The effects of magnetic parameter M, radiation parameter F, porosity parameter X and Gr on the flow variables are discussed qualitatively.
