Abstract
An experimental investigation is performed of the effect of the neutral gas temperature gradient on plasma-dust formations in the positive column of a glow discharge. It is demonstrated that the thermophoretic forces arising due to the temperature gradient are comparable with radial electric fields and define the condition of formation and different shapes of plasma-dust structures, in particular, the formation of rings in the vicinity of tube walls. A model description of this effect is given.
