Complex (dusty) plasmas are composed of a weakly ionized gas and charged microparticles
and represent the plasma state of soft matter. Complex plasmas have several remarkable …

The field of complex (dusty) plasmas—low-temperature plasmas containing charged
microparticles—is reviewed: The major types of experimental complex plasmas are briefly …

Dusty plasmas are ubiquitous in low-temperature laboratory discharges as well as in the
near-earth environment, planetary rings, and interstellar spaces. In this paper, updated …

Strong correlations—cooperative behavior due to many-particle interactions—are
omnipresent in nature. They occur in electrolytic solutions, dense plasmas, ultracold ions …

The excitation and propagation of finite-amplitude low-frequency solitary waves are
investigated in an argon plasma impregnated with kaolin dust particles. A nonlinear …

A monolayer plasma crystal consisting of micron-sized particles levitated in the sheath of a rf
discharge was melted by applying a short electric pulse to two parallel wires located at the …

The dissipative cylindrical and spherical (nonplanar) electrostatic low-frequency dust-
acoustic waves (DAWs) including solitary and shock waves in a collisional and …

In ground-based experiments with complex (dusty) plasmas, charged microparticles are
levitated against gravity by an electric field, which also drives ion flow in the parent gas …

The propagation of a dissipative soliton was experimentally studied in a two-dimensional
binary complex plasma. The crystallization was suppressed in the center of the particle …

Profound temperature peaks are observed in regions of high velocity shear in a 2D dusty
plasma experiment with laser-driven flow. These are attributed to viscous heating, which …
