Dusty plasma in space
Main Article Content
Abstract
Dusty plasmas consist of electrons, ions and charged dust particles observed in several astro-and space-physical environments such as nebulas, cometary tails, planetary rings, and planetary ionospheres. The presence of heavy, highly charged dust may significantly influence various physical processes, for example, the creation of spatial structures over a wide range of distances, from hundreds to tens of millions of kilometres. In this paper we present a review and an analysis of the spectra of volume and surface waves, instabilities and solitons in a dusty plasma.
