Surface-active dust in a plasma sheath
A. M. Ignatov, P. P. J. M. Schram, S. A. Trigger
The inhomogeneity of the plasma pressure near a conducting electrode is a cause for introducing the surface tension associated with the plasma-electrode interface. We evaluate the…

On the role of mass growth in dusty plasma kinetics
A. M. Ignatov, S. A. Trigger
It is shown that absorption of ions by the dust grain may reduce the effective translational temperature of the dust component below the ambient gas temperature.
