 Seventh Workshop on the Physics of Dusty Plasmas

          University of Colorado

          Boulder, CO 80309, USA

          April  6-9, 1998

 

 


Dusty plasmas are perhaps the fastest growing area in plasma physics with a surprisingly wide range of applications. They represent the most general form of space, laboratory and industrial plasmas.

The workshop invited participants from all interested fields to assess the most recent theoretical, observational and experimental advances.

We had presentations on a  variety of dusty plasma topics, including:

1) Dusty Plasma Theory and Laboratory Experiments

   -  charging

   -  charged dust dynamics

   -  waves and instabilities

   -  strong coupling

2) Atmospheric, Space and Astrophysical Applications

3) Industrial and Environmental Applications
