Dust in Magnetized Plasmas
نویسنده
چکیده
Overview of recent progress in studies of magnetized dusty plasmas is presented. Dust dynamic under the influence of an applied magnetic field in various types of discharges and conditions (including dust dynamic in the magnetized plasma sheath) is examined. The various dust driven mechanisms in magnetized plasma are considered and comparison experimental and theoretical data is performed. Influence of magnetic field on dust structures are analyzed as well as dust stabilization (freezing) in the alternating magnetic field.

A dusty plasma device for producing extended, steady state, magnetized, dusty plasma columns
We describe a rotating-drum dust-dispersal device, which we have used, in conjunction with an existing Q machine, to produce extended, steady state, magnetized plasma columns. The dusty plasma device (DPD) is to be used for the investigation of waves in dusty plasmas and of other plasma/dust aspects. The device is capable of generating dusty plasmas in which as much as -90% of the negative char...
متن کاملDust acoustic wave in a strongly magnetized pair-dust plasma
The existence of the dust acoustic wave (DAW) in a strongly magnetized electron-positron (pair)dust plasma is demonstrated. In the DAW, the restoring force comes from the pressure of inertialess electrons and positrons, and the dust mass provides the inertia. The waves could be of interest in astrophysical settings such as the supernovae and pulsars, as well as in cluster explosions by intense ...

متن کاملNumerical study of a dust-contaminated electron plasma
The DuEl (Dust-Electron) device, a modified Penning-Malmberg trap for the confinement of dust-contaminated electron plasmas, is currently under construction at the University of Milano with the aim of investigating the dynamics of magnetized complex (dusty) electron plasmas [1]. The overall behaviour of such plasmas is heavily affected by the addition of a small fraction of micrometric or sub-m...
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...
