Effects of a uniform magnetic field, the plasma inhomogeneity, and dust charge fluctuations on low-frequency dust-lower-hybrid drift waves have been investigated. Charging currents of electrons and ions to a spherical dust grain in a nonuniform magnetized dusty plasma have been calculated to study the charge fluctuation induced damping or growth of low-frequency drift waves. It is found that fo...

Plasma afterglows interacting with dust grains present a dynamic environment in which negatively charged leaving the plasma bulk experience an conditions transient space and time. This review focuses on impact of atmospheric pressure physics concerning interaction between afterglow.

The stochastic energy acquired by an isolated charged macroparticle “dust” particle due to electrostatic fluctuations of a weakly ionized plasma is investigated. Analytic relations are derived and numerical modeling of the problem for the conditions close to those of typical laboratory experiments in a complex dusty plasma is done. The study demonstrates that the kinetic energy of a dust partic...
