Laboratory studies of waves and instabilities in dusty plasmas*
Theoretical and experimental studies of low-frequency electrostatic waves in plasmas containing negatively charged dust grains are described. The presence of charged dust is shown to modify the properties of ion-acoustic waves and electrostatic ion-cyclotron waves through the quasineutrality condition even though the dust grains do not participate in the wave dynamics. If the dust dynamics is i...

متن کاملAction-angle representation of waves and instabilities in flowing plasmas
Action-angle representation of linear fluctuation in plasma is formally performed by taking the Lagrange-Hamilton theory as the basis and invoking the recent spectral technique [Hirota and Fukumoto, J. Math. Phys. 49 083101 (2008)], which is shown to be applicable equally to the magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) system and the Vlasov-Maxwell system. This formalism leads to a natural definition of the w...
متن کاملOptical Spectroscopy of Recombining Ions in Flowing Afterglow Plasmas
Spectroscopy has been an important tool in studies of dissociative recombination (DR) for many years. The early work by Biondi and coworkers established the dissociative nature of the process by demonstrating the Doppler broadening of spectral lines due to the momentum that is imparted on the separating recombination fragments. In more recent work, spectroscopic methods have been used to identi...
متن کاملPollution Studies of Some Water Bodies in Lagos, Nigeria
Over the years, there has been an obvious pollution problem in Lagos area, Nigeria with high population of over eleven million and the near absence of waste management infrastructures. Concentrations of some pollution parameters and trace elements (temperature, pH, salinity, SO42-, NO3-, PO43-, F-, DO, BOD, COD and coliform, Cr, Co, Ni, Ag, Cd and Pb) were determined from water bodies of Isolo ...
