Abstract
Dust particle ordering is discussed in various types of low-temperature pla sma, such as thermal plasmas at atmospheric pressure, dc glow discharges, U V- and radioactivity induced plasmas. The investigations of UV- induced dus ty plasma were made under microgravity conditions. Experimental data are pr esented. Properties of ordered structures are discussed and the conditions of formation considered. (C) 1999 American Institute of Physics. [S1070-664 X(99)96005-6].
