Notes:
Temporal and spatial evolution of the dust-charge in a low temperature plasma is demonstrated by numerical calculation. It is shown that the dust-charge number at the steady state obtained by the present calculation is in good agreement with that derived from an experiment of a direct current glow discharge. By changing the conditions, such as plasma and dust densities and ion and electron temperatures, their effects on the dust-charge are clarified by the present model. These are useful results for understanding the charging process of micron-sized dust grains in plasmas. © 1999 American Institute of Physics.
