“…The physics of plasma expansion, which is one of the most interesting topics in plasma science, has attracted a great deal of attention during the last two decades (Gurevich, Pariiskaya & Pitaevskii 1966;Farnsworth et al 1979;Sack & Schamel 1987;Lonngren 1990;Singh & Narayan 1990;Anisimov, Luk'Yanchuk & Luches 1996;Baitin & Kuzanyan 1998;Dorozhkina & Semenov 1998;Kovalev & Bychenkov 2003;Laha et al 2007;Huang et al 2008;Djebli 2010;Doggett & Lunney 2011;Fermous, Bennaceur-Doumaz & Djebli 2012;Akbari-Moghanjoughi 2015;Bennaceur-Doumaz et al 2015;McQuillen et al 2015). Plasma expansion in a vacuum is one of the important dominating processes in different plasma situations, such as the dynamics of laser produced plasmas (Perry & Mourou 1994), inertial confinement fusion plasmas (Lindl 1995), plasma clusters (Symes et al 2007), plasma thin foils (Maksimchuk et al 2000) and laser accelerated plasmas (Dawson 1964;Ditmire et al 1996Ditmire et al , 1997Coppa, D'Angola & Mulas 2011;D'Angola, Boella & Coppa 2014;Boella et al 2016), etc.…”

The self-similar expansion of an adiabatic electronegative dusty plasma (consisting of inertialess adiabatic electrons, inertialess adiabatic ions and inertial adiabatic negatively charged dust fluids) is theoretically investigated by employing the self-similar approach. It is found that the effects of the plasma adiabaticity (represented by the adiabatic index $\unicode[STIX]{x1D6FE}$) and dusty plasma parameters (determined by dust temperature and initial dust population) significantly modify the nature of the plasma expansion. The implications of our results are expected to play an important role in understanding the physics of the expansion of space and laboratory electronegative dusty plasmas.

The properties of an expanding plasma composed of degenerate electron fluid and non-degenerate ions are studied. For our purposes, we use fluid equations for ions together with the electron momentum equation that include quantum forces (e.g., the quantum statistical pressure, forces due to the electron-exchange and electron correlations effects) and the quasi-neutrality condition. The governing equation is written in a tractable form by using a self-similar transformation. Numerical results for typical beryllium plasma parameters revealed that, during the expansion, the ion acoustic speed decreases for both isothermal and adiabatic ion pressure. When compared with classical hydrodynamic plasma expansion model, the electrons and ions are found to initially escape faster in vacuum creating thus an intense electric field that accelerates most of the particles into the vacuum ahead of the plasma expansion. The relevancy of the present model to beryllium plasma produced by a femto-second laser is highlighted
