Positive charging of grains in an afterglow plasma is enhanced by ions drifting in an electric field

N Chaubey, J Goree, SJ Lanham, MJ Kushner - Physics of plasmas, 2021 - pubs.aip.org
In a plasma, the polarity of a dust grain's charge is typically negative, but it can reverse and
become positive in an afterglow, when the power sustaining the plasma is switched off. This …

Preservation of a dust crystal as it falls in an afterglow plasma

N Chaubey, J Goree - Frontiers in physics, 2022 - frontiersin.org
In an experiment, the power that sustains a plasma was extinguished, so that microspheres,
which had been levitated, fell downward toward a lower electrode. At the beginning of their …

[HTML][HTML] Coulomb expansion of a thin dust cloud observed experimentally under afterglow plasma conditions

N Chaubey, J Goree - Physics of plasmas, 2022 - pubs.aip.org
