Abstract
Random charge fluctuations are always present in dusty plasmas due to the discrete nature of currents charging the dust particles. These fluctuations can be a reason of the heating of dust particle systems. In this paper we show by analytical evaluations and numerical simulation that charge fluctuations provide an effective source of energy and can heat the dust particles up to several eV, in conditions close to experimental ones.
