Statistical Properties of Relaxing Dusty Plasmas
نویسنده
چکیده
The Liouville equation is considered for relaxing dusty plasmas consisting initially of equilibrium electrons and ions as well as neutral dust particles. The plasmas relax then due to a collection ofelectrons and ions by dust particles. The free and collected electrons and ions are considered as a common subsystem described by the common whole distribution function. It is shown that this sub-system is described by a complex integral-differential equation with Non-Markovian kinetics. The general properties of dusty plasmas are important for controlled fusion devices because dust particles can be created in fusion devices due to the plasma-wall interaction and therefore can influence particle and energy fluxes to the wall.

متن کاملLarge amplitude dust ion acoustic solitons: considering dust polarity and nonextensive electrons
The characteristics of arbitrary amplitude dust ion acoustic solitary waves (DIASWs) are studied in unmagnetized dusty plasmas whose constituents are cold uid ions, nonextensive electrons and stationary negative/positive dust particles. The pseudopotential approach has been used to investigate the structure of localized waves. It is found that, solitary waves exist in a definite interval for th...
متن کاملRadiometric force in dusty plasmas.
It is shown that inhomogeneous heating of the dust grain by ion flow in a glow discharge results in a photophoresislike force. According to our estimations, this radiometric force can be comparably-valued with the ion-drag force under the conditions of microgravity dusty plasma experiments.

A dusty plasma is an ionized gas containing dust particles, with sizes ranging from tens of nanometers to hundreds of microns. The interaction of the dust particles with the plasma and ambient environment results in a charging of the dust grains. This Chapter summarizes our basic knowledge of dusty plasmas with applications in space, industry and the laboratory. The Introduction (Section 1) pro...
متن کاملOrdering of dust particles in dusty plasmas under microgravity.
Structure formation of dust particles in dusty plasmas under microgravity has been simulated by the molecular dynamics method. It is shown that, at low temperatures, dust particles are organized into layered spherical shells. The number of shells is a function of the system size and the strength of screening by ambient plasma particles, while the dependency on the latter is much weaker. In the ...
