Research Abstract |
Dust particles of micron size are negatively charged in a plasma and are confined in a plasma to remain charge neutral as a system. Dust particles can be suspended in a plasma by the balance of sheath electric force and gravity, and are visible through the scattering of laser light applied from the outside of the chamber. Novel structures of dust particles are observed, including the low-dimensional structures in a cryogenic plasma, two-dimensional structures formed in a horizontal plane of the sheath, and collective oscillations with extremely low frequency. The bow shock pattern is realized by dust particles, which helps to understand the basic structures of planetary bow shock. The vortex and mass ejection are observed in the application of strong magnetic field. On the other hand, the double helical structure found in a simulation gives a platform to understand the helix commonly observed in DNA. In conclusion, our research on complex plasma opened a new field in a plasma physics.
