The New Screening Characteristics of Strongly Non-ideal and Dusty Plasmas. Part 3: Properties and Applications

TL;DR

This paper introduces new screening parameters and characteristic lengths for strongly non-ideal and dusty plasmas, demonstrating their applicability and consistency with experimental data.

Contribution

It develops a hierarchy system of screening lengths and validates the methods for complex plasma systems, extending previous theoretical work.

Findings

New screening parameters and characteristic lengths are proposed.

The methods show good agreement with experimental data.

The hierarchy system enhances understanding of plasma screening properties.

Abstract

The physical sense and the properties of a group screening parameters which are determined in the previous papers (Part~1 and Part~2) for single- and two-component systems is discussed in this paper. On the base of data from the mentioned papers are determined two new characteristic lengths which complete a new hierarchy system of screening lengths in plasma. It was shown that the methods developed in Part~1 and Part~2 generates results which are applicable to the strongly non-ideal gaseous and dusty plasmas, and manifest a very good agreement with the existing experimental data.
