Large-amplitude dust waves excited by the gas-dynamic impact in a dc glow discharge plasma

Abstract: A large-amplitude wave with two humps of dust density, separated by a dip was generated. To excite the wave in the dc glow discharge dusty plasma a gas-dynamic impact was used. The structure obtained had several interesting properties such as strong compression of dust in the humps, supersonic dust particles in the rarefaction zone, reconstruction of the initial dust configuration after the passing of the wave. The peculiarities of the phenomenon observed are discussed. The mechanism of generation and propagat… Show more

“…An intriguing aspect of DAWs is the fact that the propagating dust density waves can be seen and analyzed by laser light scattering from the dust particles, and the dynamics of individual particles within the wave can be recorded in space and time. 2,3 The considerable ongoing experimental [3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13] and theoretical [14][15][16][17][18] work on DAWs indicates that this remains a vibrant area of investigation. Recently, for example, Fortov, et al 8 studied DAWs that appear spontaneously in an rf inductive discharge plasma.…”

“…The observations of DAWs and measurements of dust-acoustic (sound) velocities have been used to obtain useful information about dusty plasmas systems under various conditions [4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15] (we mainly concentrate on three-dimensional particle clouds here, which is also reflected in the reference list). In particular, experimentally measured DAW dispersion relations and sound velocities have been repeatedly used to estimate the electrical charge of particles in dusty plasmas under laboratory and microgravity conditions [16][17][18][19][20], employing various experimental techniques.…”

“…After 5 years, Barkan et al [7] experimentally studied the DAWs and verified the theoretical prediction of Rao et al [6]. The DAWs which are now found to be very common in both space and laboratory devices [6][7][8][9][10], in which the inertia is provided by the dust particle mass and the restoring force, are provided by the pressures of the inertialess electrons and ions. A number of authors have studied nonlinear DAWs both theoretically [11][12][13][14] and experimentally [15][16][17] during the last few years.…”
