Observations of a structure-forming instability in a dc-glow-discharge dusty plasma.
By adjusting the anode current and axial magnetic strength of a dc-glow-discharge dusty plasma, we have found plasma and dust conditions conducive to dusty plasma structurization, similar to the one discussed theoretically by Morfill and Tsytovich [Plasma Phys. Rep. 26, 682 (2000)]. The structurization instability leads to the formation of a pattern where the dust suspension transforms into alt...

متن کاملNonlinear Dust Acoustic Waves, Shocks and Stationary Structures in a DC Glow Discharge Dusty Plasma
The dust acoustic wave (DAW) is a very low frequency (tens of Hz) dust density wave in which the dust particles participate in the wave dynamics. The early experimental observations of DAWs showed that the wave was self-excited by a modest relative ion drift and grew to very high amplitudes (~100%). In the first part of this paper we describe experiments showing the self-steepening of nonlinear...
متن کاملDouble Langmuir probe measurement of plasma parameters in a dc glow discharge
In this paper, plasma main characteristics such as electron mean temperature, electron number density, and oscillation frequency have been measured experimentally using the double Langmuir probe diagnostic system. In our experiment, the plasma was generated by applying the low pressure dc glow discharge in several common gases. The experimental results indicated the highest plasma density and o...
متن کاملDust particle charging in DC glow discharge plasma
Dust particles charging in a stratified positive column of a low-pressure DC glow discharge was investigated theoretically. The presented model consists of (i) previously developed 1D selfconsistent model for discharge parameters on the tube axis; (ii) ambipolar approximation for radial electric potential distribution and the assumption that the electron energy distribution function in radial d...
