Alignment and instability of dust crystals in plasmas
Abstract
Charged dust particulates, forming a layered crystal in the electrode sheath of a rf discharge, are known to show vertical alignment and an onset of characteristic oscillations below a threshold of neutral gas density. Here forces on the particulates due to the formation of positive space-charge clouds below the dust particles are calculated from Monte Carlo calculations of the ion motion in the sheath. The forces are shown to be attractive and nonreciprocal for the different crystal layers. From the Monte Carlo results an analytical lattice model is derived that quantitatively explains the experimental findings. \textcopyright{} 1996 The American Physical Society.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
