Abstract
It is shown that there are two low-frequency modes associated with vertical oscillations in the Coulomb crystal of dust grains arranged in two horizontal chains in a sheath region of a low-temperature gas discharge plasma. The dispersion relations and characteristic frequencies of the modes are found.
