Dusty plasma can exist in a wide range, from the laboratory to Saturn's rings. The coupling parameter plays a very important role in diagnosing dusty plasma. There are two ways to deal analytically with the effect of coupling in plasma.…

Propagation features of circularly polarized (CP) electromagnetic waves in magnetized plasmas are determined by the plasma density and the magnetic field strength. This property can be applied to design a unique plasma photonic device for…
Most treatments of electron-electron correlations in dense plasmas either ignore them entirely (random phase approximation) or neglect the role of ions (jellium approximation). In this work, we go beyond both these approximations to derive…

It is known that a plasma in a magnetic field, conceived microscopically as a system of point charges, can exist in a magnetized state, and thus remain confined, inasmuch as it is in an ordered state of motion, with the charged particles…

The traditional generalized Ohm's law in MHD do not explicitly present the relation of electric currents and electric fields in fully ionized plasma, and lead to some unexpected concepts, such as "the magnetic frozen-in plasma", magnetic…
Resonant magnetic perturbations (RMP) have extensively been demonstrated as a plausible technique for mitigating or suppressing large edge localized modes (ELMs). Associated with this is a substantial amount of theory and modelling efforts…
Stabilizing plasma dynamics through externally applied electric and magnetic fields is a fundamental control problem. We study this question for a plasma evolving under a uniform external magnetic field. Although the governing dynamics are…
As proved by previous study, the similarity of electromagnetic processes in plasmas will be violated by Coulomb collisions between electron and ions. Therefore, there is no similarity in highly ionized collisional plasma. But the situation…
A solid target in contact with a plasma charges (negatively) to reflect the more mobile species (electrons) and thus keep the bulk plasma quasineutral. To shield the bulk plasma from the charged target, there is an oppositely (positively)…
