Electrostatic sheath at the boundary of a dusty plasma

  • 1. Institut fuer Theoretische Physik I, Ruhr-Universitaet Bochum, D-44780 Bochum (Germany)

Description

The effect of massive charged dust grains on plasma--wall interaction is investigated using the electrostatic probe model for the dust charging process. It is shown that the dust grains can have a substantial effect on the behavior of the electrostatic potential and particle densities near the wall. copyright 1995 American Institute of Physics
