    Notes: The recent results of the kinetic theory of dusty plasmas [V. N. Tsytovich and U. de Angelis, Phys. Plasmas 6, 1093 (1999)] are analyzed to assess the importance of new qualitative effects: Inelasticity of dust–plasma particle collisions, deviations from Debye screening and from the dust equilibrium charge in the interactions, the existence of a friction force on plasma particles, and their diffusion in energy. These collective effects depend on the plasma dielectric constant modified by dust charging effects as well as on two new types of dusty plasma responses, related to the fluctuations of plasma particle currents to dust particles. Analytic expressions for the responses are derived and numerical results are given to assess their importance and dependence on dusty plasma parameters. The rate of energy and momentum transfer from plasma particles to dust particles is calculated analytically and numerical results are presented. © 2000 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: The kinetic theory of dusty plasmas is formulated introducing the dust charge as an independent variable. The Bogoliubov–Klimontovich approach is generalized for the case where the discreetness of the dust grain distribution is described rigorously, while the electrons and ions are described by continuous kinetic equations which take into account their absorption on the highly charged dust grains. The theory is valid for dust densities larger than the critical value where the binary plasma particle collisions can be neglected with respect to the collisions with dust particles. This condition is fulfilled in most dust-plasma experiments and often in space plasmas. The discreetness in the dust distribution leads to both dust fluctuations and plasma particle fluctuations, the latter induced by the dust fluctuations. The dust charge fluctuations alter the interaction appreciably, leading to effective dust charges in interactions which depend on distance and deviate substantially from the equilibrium dust charges. New collision integrals describing the dust charge distribution and inelasticity of dust-plasma particle collisions are found and the problem of dust charging is formulated self-consistently. © 1999 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: The correlations in dusty plasmas in the gaseous state is considered. It is shown that the long-ranged correlations of dust particles, contrary to usual matter, start to form in a weakly correlated state, leading finally to the formation of dust crystals and dust liquids with not strong but intermediate strength correlations. The physical mechanism leading to long-ranged correlations is the dust attraction due to shadow effects of the plasma particle fluxes. An analytic theory for the long-ranged dust density correlation function is developed and the numerical results for a broad range of dust densities and plasma temperatures are presented. The long-ranged correlations induced by dust for electron densities, ion densities, and dust charges are also investigated, and the results for electron density correlations are presented in a way that permits measurement of the long-ranged correlation function in laser and radio-wave scattering experiments. © 1997 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: The results of theoretical and experimental studies on excitation of drift waves in a tokamak plasma under the conditions of experiments on lower-hybrid (LH) plasma heating and current drive are presented. It is shown that for sufficiently strong LH pump levels the main effect resulting in the drift wave excitation is the LH wave modulational instability. It is found that the modulational excitation of long-wavelength drift oscillations (with the wavelengths exceeding the length of the LH pump wave) is described by a dispersion equation similar to the equation for the usual hydrodynamical beam instability. This allows us to treat the excitation of the long-wavelength drift waves as modulational excitation by a beam of the LH waves. The theoretical results obtained are compared with the data of the tokamak Tore Supra [Proceedings of the 12th International Conference on Plasma Physics and Controlled Nuclear Fusion, Nice, 1988 (International Atomic Energy Agency, Vienna, 1989), p. 9] experiment. Qualitative accordance of the theoretical and experimental results is demonstrated. © 1996 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: The charging collisions of electrons and ions with dust particles and the collisions of all particles with neutral atoms are self-consistently taken into account to study low-frequency modes and instabilities in dusty plasmas. These were previously treated with a multicomponent approach for fixed grain charge or taking into account the dust charge variations but not the effect of the electron/ion–dust collisions on the plasma distributions and response. A new general expression for the dusty plasma response is found and examples of waves and instabilities in dusty plasmas are considered for a broad range of frequencies lower than both the charging frequency and the frequency of plasma particle interactions with dust. Suggestions for future experiments are given. © 2002 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: By employing standard statistical techniques of linear fluctuation theory, it is shown how the ensemble averages over statistical distributions of charged massive grains in a dusty plasma can result in "average'' dispersion relations for high-frequency electromagnetic and electrostatic waves. The dispersion relations admit solutions for complex frequencies and wave numbers, suggesting that the waves can be damped (Im ω≠0) or absorbed (Im k≠0) in a dusty plasma.

    Notes: It is shown that the presence of dust near the wall of a low-temperature plasma leads to formation of a dissipative structure confining dust and plasma particles and creating the specific dust-plasma layer. This equilibrium structure is formed self-consistently with the fields of dust particles. It is demonstrated that all properties of the dust-plasma sheath depend only on one parameter—the March number of the ion flow, which have allowed zones and can be less than unity, in contrast to the features of the plasma sheath without influence of dust. © 1999 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: The broad spectra of random waves in unmagnetized plasmas are considered. A universal nonlinear formalism is developed for description of the nonlinear effects (modulational instability, etc.) in which random plasma waves take part. The integral equations for perturbations of wave field correlation functions are obtained. In a description of the modulational instability of random wave packets these equations play the same role as the set of coupled equations for the fields of modulational perturbations in the case of a single monochromatic pump wave. On the basis of these integral dispersion equations the modulational instability of broad wave spectra is investigated for the one-dimensional situation (when directions of propagation of the random waves coincide with that of the modulational perturbations) and for isotropic wave turbulence.
