Abstract:In the presence of ion streaming, the potential around dust particles immersed in plasma becomes anisotropic. In this scenario, the repulsive Debye–Hückel potential is superimposed with an attractive wake potential. This work presents an analytical study of the complex behavior of such a wake potential in the presence of a magnetic field (oriented transversely to the ion flow) and ion-neutral collisions using linear response formalism, both in subsonic and supersonic regimes. The amplitude and periodicity of t… Show more
