This paper analytically studies the thermal radiation and chemical reaction e?ect on unsteady MHD convection through a porous medium bounded by an in?nite vertical plate. The ?uid considered here is a gray, absorbing-emitting but nonscattering medium, and the Rosseland approximationisusedtodescribetheradiativeheat?uxintheenergyequation.Thedimensionless governing equations are solved using Laplace transform technique. The resulting velocity, temperature andconcentration pro?lesaswellastheskin-friction, rateofheat,andmasstransfer areshowngraphically fordi?erentvaluesofphysicalparameters involved. 1.Introduction Thermalradiationofagray?uidwhichisemittingandabsorbingradiationinanonscattering mediumhasbeeninvestigatedbyAlietal.1,IbrahimandHady2,Mansour3 ,Hossain etal.4,5,RaptisandPerdikis6,Makinde7,andAbdus-SattarandHamidKalim8 .All thesestudieshaveinvestigatedtheunsteady?owinanonporousmedium.Fromtheprevious literaturesurveyaboutunsteady?uid?ow,weobservethatfewpapersweredoneinaporous medium.Theradiative?owsofanelectricallyconducting?uidwithhightemperatureinthe presence of a magnetic ?eld are encountered in electrical power gener
