Photoelectron sheath formation and subsequent fine dust levitation over the sunlit lunar
regolith have been investigated by consistently accounting for the continuous interaction of …

Accounting for the continuous interaction of the solar radiation, the development of
electrostatic charge on the sunlit lunar regolith under extreme plasma conditions has been …

We present theoretical estimates of the electrical charge and electrostatic surface potentials
on debris objects orbiting in the LEO and GEO regions of the Earth's ionosphere. The …

Dust populations in space plasmas are often described by a size distribution function,
generally a power law distribution. In view of that, we include this feature in the kinetic …

A model describing the growth of embryonic dust grains on account of accretion of neutral
atoms and positively charged ionic species in a complex plasma has been developed. In …

ABSTRACT A scheme based on natural quantum electric field tunnelling to mitigate the
substantial charge deposition due to triboelectric (frictional) charging from the drill set-up …

Using a kinetic description of a homogeneous magnetized dusty plasma with Maxwellian
distribution of electrons and protons and dust particles charged by inelastic collisions and by …

This paper presents an analysis of the kinetics of an illuminated complex plasma having
spherical dust particles with a size distribution. It has been pointed out that in the steady …

Charging kinetics of uniformly dispersed spherical dust particles in a non-Maxwellian
plasma, characterized by a Lorentzian (κ) distribution function of electrons/ions has been …

The local topography of the crater makes permanently shadowed craters (PSCs) over Moon
electrically complex. The plasma environment in PSCs is generally characterized by diffused …
