Modeling Torque Induced Alignment in a Dusty Plasma System
Benny Rodriguez Saenz, Diana Jimenez Marti, Lorin Swint Matthews +1
Irregular dust aggregates immersed in plasma sheaths experience several orientation-dependent torques that can modify their rotational dynamics and stability. Here, we investigate…
