3 Debye shielding DUST
4 mass: billions times heavier than ions size: μmm--mm charge: not neutral, or (10 10^4 electronic or protonic charge) THE ADDITION OF SUCH DUST MAKES A PLASMA SYSTEM VERY COMPLEX. THIS IS WHY, IT IS ALSO KNOWN AS COMPLEX PLASMA Review articles: Goertz(1989); Mendis & Rosenberg (1994) Books: Bouchoule(1999); Verheest(2000); Shukla & Mamun(2002)

7 the dust acquires an electrical charge and thus is subject to electromagnetic and gravitational forces the charged dust particles participate in the collective plasma processes Astrophysicists now realize that the dust may be charged and that must be taken into account.
8 The presence of charged dust can affect the properties of plasma waves even for high frequencies where the dust does not participate in the wave motion (dust is an immobile neutralizing background) This is because the dust affects the charge neutrality condition: en + = en e + Q d n d F. Verheest, Space Sci. Rev., 77, 267, 1996
9 Charged dust leads to modifications in the wave dispersion relations [real w(k)] The dust can also affect instability conditions: (growth rates, critical drifts, etc.) For frequencies below the characteristic plasma frequencies, new dust modes emerge. These are modes in which the dust participates in the wave motion.

12 dust ion acoustic (DIA) mode dust acoustic wave (DAW) electrostatic dust ion cyclotron wave (EDIC) electrostatic dust cyclotron wave (EDC) Dusty plasmas in space are usually embedded in magnetic fields. This aspect of dusty plasmas has yet been studied in the lab. R. L. Merlino, et. al., Phys. Plasmas 5, 1607, 1998

21 The presence of dust particles complicate the study of electromagnetic modes. Understanding the role of dust particles into the Faraday Effect, we found that the electron contribution is predominant for the dusty torus of AGN, and the dust does not affect the rotation of electron vector of polarization (EVPA). For the outer parts of the jet, kilo-parsec regions, the electrons remain predominant, but the rotation of the elongated dust particles can contribute notably to the Faraday Rotation Measurement. More accurate models are necessary (thermal motion of particles) to clarify the real participation of dust particle in this kind of dispersive processes. INTEGRAL observations in the mm wavelength will be of great importance to study the dust influence on the polarization properties of the radiation propagating along the dusty magnetized plasma.
