Rotational kinetics of absorbing dust grains in neutral gas

Abstract: We study the rotational and translational kinetics of massive particulates (dust grains) absorbing the ambient gas. Equations for microscopic phase densities are deduced resulting in the Fokker-Planck equation for the dust component. It is shown that although there is no stationary distribution, the translational and rotational temperatures of dust tend to certain values, which differ from the temperature of the ambient gas. The influence of the inner structure of grains on rotational kinetics is also discusse… Show more

“…For their statistical description as a plasma constituent, their inner structure can be neglected provided that additional variables representing their microstate are defined (Ignatov et al. 2002). These mesoscopic variables, as a result of interaction with the plasma, vary with the local plasma parameters and can be considered as new phase-space variables.…”

“…Dusty (complex) plasmas versus collisionless multicomponent plasmas In contrast to electrons and ions which are classically point particles and their microstate in the system can be defined solely by position and momentum, dust grains possess an internal structure. For their statistical description as a plasma constituent, their inner structure can be neglected provided that additional variables representing their microstate are defined (Ignatov et al 2002). These mesoscopic variables, as a result of interaction with the plasma, vary with the local plasma parameters and can be considered as new phase-space variables.…”

“…Microscopic and subsequently statistical/mechanical and kinetic studies of particle interactions in dusty plasmas, including modelling of electron and ion absorption by dust, are also central in papers by Sitenko et al (1996), Schram et al (2000) and Zagorodny et al (2000), and are both of general character and aimed at specific studies, such as dust crystal formation and crystal melting. We also mention that the effects of mass growth of dust is another topic under study: Ignatov et al (2002) and references therein consider such effects, together with the effects of dust rotation, neglecting charging, on a kinetic level.…”
