Abstract
Low-temperature structures of Yukawa particles in systems with cylindrical symmetry are analyzed by numerical simulations. Particles are organized into well-defined thin concentric shells forming triangular lattices with defects on each shell and structural parameters are expressed by simple interpolation formulas including the limiting case of Coulomb particles. In outer shells, the local structure can be regarded as three-dimensional closest packing as in the case of the background of uniform spheres. These formulas can be directly compared with fine particle experiments in long cylindrical chambers under microgravity or colloidal suspensions in cylinders and may be useful as a basis of structural analyses in cylindrical systems.
