Phase transitions of Yukawa systems under electric field

The diffusion behaviour of coupled particle rings driven by self-propelled particles in a two-dimensional reflection channel

“…However, attractive components are prevalent in practical situations, and their presence can significantly impact the results. The addition of attractive components increases the tendency of dust particles to aggregate or clump together, altering the structure and phase transitions in the plasma [17]. The presence of attractive forces can lead to the formation of more complex structures such as chains or networks, significantly affecting the overall dynamics.…”

“…It is reasonable to consider only the repulsive force since dust particles are usually negatively charged and repel each other. However, including an attractive component may affect the aggregation behavior, thermodynamics, and transport properties of dust particles [17,34]. This inclusion could resolve discrepancies between simulation and experimental results, thereby providing a more comprehensive understanding of dusty plasmas.…”

“…The presence of diffusive motion in weakly coupled complex (dusty) plasmas (WCCDPs) was estimated by equilibrium molecular dynamics (EMD) simulations by Aamir Shahzad et al [13]. Muhammad Asif Shakoori et al investigated the phase transition of the Yukawa system under an electric field [17]. These theories provide a robust theoretical foundation for our research.…”

“…Based on their driving mechanisms, ratchets are categorized into Rocking ratchets [3][4][5][6], Blinking ratchets [7], Correlated ratchets [8], and Self-propelling ratchets [9,10]. Some reports support a 2D (or 3D) Yukawa potential for particle dynamics with appropriate potentials in ratchet space, which may exhibit repulsion or attraction due to equilibrium and external perturbations [11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20]. Aamir Shahzad et al presented a molecular dynamics approach to study the diffusive motion and shear viscosity of two-dimensional plasma liquids [11].…”
