Abstract
AbstractA self‐consistent kinetic model of a low pressure DC glow discharge with dust particles based on Boltzmann equation for electron energy distribution function is presented. The influence of dust particles concentration Nd on gas discharge and dust particles parameters were investigated. It is shown that the increase of Nd leads to the increase of averaged electric field and ion density, and to the decrease of a dust particle charge in the dusty cloud. The absorption of electrons and ions on the dust particles surface does not lead to the electron energy distribution function depletion due to a self‐consistent adjustment of dust particles and discharge parameters (© 2009 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.
