"Researching dusty plasmas, plasma crystals and force interactions in complex plasmas"
|
|
Research Projects include:
- A theoretical study of the motion
of falling dust particles in a dusty plasma to determine the charge on the
particles;
- An investigation of the variation of the charge on levitated dust
particles with height in a plasma crystal;
- A study of chaotic behaviour in the non-linear oscillations observed
between two and three dust particle assemblies levitating in the RF sheath of
a dusty plasma;
- A study of the effect of dust particles on the impedance of a dusty
plasma.
