Abstract

A new estimation method on the electric charge quantity of dust particles in a complex plasma is developed. This method estimates the mean electric charge of dust particles in a measurement domain. The measurement system is simple and there is not much influence on experimental conditions of a dust phenomenon in which we are interested. The experimental result obtained with this method is compared with theoretical estimations. It is confirmed that the new method provides a quantitatively correct electric charge of dust particles.
