11 Jul 2013 | Abstract: | The observation is presented of naturally occurring pairing of particles and
their cooperative drift in a two-dimensional plasma crystal. A single layer of
plastic microspheres was suspended in the plasma sheath of a capacitively
coupled rf discharge in argon at a low pressure of 1 Pa. The particle dynamics
were studied by combining the top-view and side-view imaging of the suspension.
Cross analysis of the particle trajectories allowed us to identify naturally
occurring metastable pairs of particles. The lifetime of pairs was long enough
for their reliable identification. | Source: | arXiv, 1307.3079 | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites |
