Abstract
An observation of low frequency waves spontaneously excited in a dc glow discharge dusty plasma is reported. To analyze possible reasons for the instability observed, a linear dispersion relation which takes into account collisions with neutrals, dust grain charge variations, ion drift, and forces acting on dust particles is derived. Numerical analysis of the dispersion relation shows that the observed instability is the result of dust charge variations in the presence of external charge-dependent forces together with the ion drift effect.
