Optical and kinetic properties of the dusty plasma in radiofrequency discharge

Dependence of diffusion coefficient of dusty particles in dusty plasma was experimentally obtained. A proportional increase of diffusion of the dust particles with the increase of the discharge power was experimentally found. The pair correlation functions of dusty particles were also obtained from the experiments and the change of dust cloud structure with the increase of the discharge power was observed. The influence of the dust particles on the spectrum of plasma glow was investigated using spatial spectrometer. It was shown that upon introduction of dust particles into the plasma bulk the overall intensity of the plasma glow decreases.
