Instability of Waves in Magnetized Vortex-Like Ion Distribution Dusty Plasmas

A modified Zakharov-Kuznetsov equation for small but finite dustic waces in a magnetized votex-like ion distribution dusty plasma is obtained in this paper.It seems that there are instability for a soliton under higher-order transverse perturbations in this system. There is a certain critical value 4λ0. If the ratio of the wave length of the higher-order perturbations to the width of the soliton is larger than this critical value, the solitary wave is unstable, otherwise it is stable.

Features of Sand-dust Deposits in Harbin City,China

From the sedimentologic view, this paper analyses the grain-size distribution and the chemical composition of the deposits from sand-dust storm, occurring in Harbin on March 20, 2002. The result indicates that there exist plentiful coarse matters in the sand-dust deposits in Harbin, and the sand-dust composition presents obvious three peak distribution characteristics, indicating that the sand-dust in Harbin is composed of multi-origin components. The grain-size composition consists of silt （4-8Φ）, accounting for 71.18% of the total, sand （〉4Φ）, 21.70%, and clay （〈8Φ）, only 7.13%. The average grain size （Mz） is 5.14Φ. The chemical elements of the deposits are mainly SiO2 and A1203 and Fe203, totally occupying 77.8%. The enrichment factors （EF） of Mg, K, Si, Fe, Mn, P, Ti, Co, Ni and V elements are all about 1, which mainly come fi＇om lithosphere source, while parts of Cu, Pb, Zn, Cr and Se elements are from pollution sources out of lithosphere source, and As, Cd and Sb elements are mainly from pollution sources. Based on the comprehensive analysis of grain-size, chemical composition, enrichment factor （EF）, discriminant function （DF） and matter source index （PI）, this paper points out that the grain-size distribution and element composition of the sand-dust deposits in Harbin are evidently different from the loess and sand-dust in Lanzhou, and that matter source of the sand-dust in Harbin is different from the loess in Northwest China and the sand-dust in Lanzhon. The sand-dust deposits in Harbin are an admixture of coarse grains transmitted in short distance and fine grains transported in long distance. The plentiful coarse grains of the sand-dust deposits in Harbin origin from sand of local spot, and are the near-souroe deposits transported by low altitude airflow.

Experimental study and numerical simulation of gas/particle flow in tunneling of mine

Respiration particles can be collected into a dust catcher by an inside inhalingand outside pressing particle collector. The work environment of the grab operator in tunneling mining was improved when a dust catcher is placed before the working face of thegrab operator. The particle movement was affected by the gas flow. The flow field insideand outside the dust collector was simulated. The effect of the operating parameter wasanalyzed. The numerical results show a good approach to predict the gas flow and particledistribution in the inside and outside of the particle collector.

Effect of an Arbitrary Dust Size Distribution Dust Particles for Vortex-Like Ion Distribution Dusty Plasma

In order to investigate the effect of an arbitrary dust size distribution for vortex-like ion distributiondusty plasma,we use a reasonable polynomial-expressed function to represent an arbitrary dust size distribution.Thenumerical results of linear dispersion relation,nonlinear solitary wave amplitude,width and velocity for polynomialexpressed dust size distribution dusty plasma with vortex-like ion distribution have been studied.

Influence of Non-Maxwellian Particles on Dust Acoustic Waves in a Dusty Magnetized Plasma

In this paper an investigation into dust acoustic sofitary waves （DASWs） in the presence of superthermM electrons and ions in a magnetized plasma with cold dust gains and trapped electrons is discussed. The dynamic of both electrons and ions is simulated by the generalized Lorentzian （κ） distribution function （DF）. The dust grains are cold and their dynamics are studied by hydrodynamic equations. The basic set of fluid equations is reduced to modified Korteweg-de Vries （mKdV） equation using Reductive Perturbation Theory （RPT）. Two types of solitary waves, fast and slow dust acoustic soliton （DAS） exist in this plasma. Caiculations reveal that compressive solitary structures are possibly propagated in the plasma where dust grains are negatively （or positively） charged. The properties of DASs are also investigated numerically.
