Agglomeration of microparticles in complex plasmas
Cheng-Ran Du, Hubertus Thomas, Alexei Ivlev +2
Agglomeration of highly charged microparticles was observed and studied in complex plasma experiments carried out in a capacitively coupled rf discharge. The agglomeration was caus…
Instability of ion kinetic waves in a weakly ionized plasma
Roman Kompaneets, Alexei V. Ivlev, Sergey V. Vladimirov +1
The fundamental higher-order Landau plasma modes are known to be generally heavily damped. We show that these modes for the ion component in a weakly ionized plasma can be substant…
Direct observation of mode-coupling instability in two-dimensional plasma crystals
L. Couëdel, V. Nosenko, A. V. Ivlev +3
Dedicated experiments on melting of 2D plasma crystals were carried out. The melting was always accompanied by spontaneous growth of the particle kinetic energy, suggesting a unive…
