Parametric instability in a collisional dusty plasma
The present work investigates the parametric instability of parallel propagating circularly polarized Alfvén pump waves in a collisional dusty plasma. It is demonstrated that the relative drift between the charged dust and the electrons and ions gives rise to the Hall effect resulting in the modified pump wave characteristics. Although the linearized fluid equations with periodic coefficients a...
متن کاملModulational instability of dust ion acoustic waves in astrophysical dusty plasmas with non thermal electrons
Propagation of dust ion acoustic waves in plasmas composed of nonthermal distributed electrons and stationary dust particles is investigated. Nonlinear Schrdinger equation is derived to describe small amplitude waves, using the reduction perturbation technique. Modulation instability of dust ion acoustic waves is analysed for this system. Parametric investigation indicates that growth rate of...
متن کاملCutoff wave number for shear waves in a two-dimensional Yukawa system (dusty plasma).
The cutoff wave number for shear waves in a liquid-state strongly coupled plasma was measured experimentally. The phonon spectra of random particle motion were measured at various temperatures in a monolayer dusty plasma, where microspheres interact with a Yukawa potential. In the liquid state of this particle suspension, shear waves were detected only for wavelengths smaller than 20 to 40 Wign...
متن کاملDusty Plasma Dynamics During a Void Instability: Heartbeat Instability
When a three-dimensional dust cloud is present in a plasma, a dust-free region, called void, is usually observed in the plasma centre. Forces involved in the void existence are an inward electrostatic force and an outward ion drag one. Under certain conditions, this force balance can be disturbed and this region exhibits a self-excited unstable behaviour consisting in successive contractions an...
متن کاملEvolution of shear-induced melting in a dusty plasma.
The spatiotemporal development of melting is studied experimentally in a 2D dusty plasma suspension. Starting with an ordered lattice, and then suddenly applying localized shear, a pair of counterpropagating flow regions develop. A transition between two melting stages is observed before a steady state is reached. Melting spreads with a front that propagates at the transverse sound speed. Unexp...
