摘要
Our interest is to study the sheath formation in an inhomogeneous plasma coexisting with an interaction of weak ionization. Pseudopotential analysis has been employed to derive the coherent structures of sheath in plasma. It has shown that the ionization affects the growth of sheath in plasma and nature depends fully on plasma constituents as well. After getting a robust sheath, dynamical behaviors of a levitated dust grain into the robust sheath has been studied which, in fact, leads to find the variation of dust potential, dust sizes along with the net force generated on grains. Results are obtained numerical for some typical plasma parameters. It has demonstrated that the plasma constituent effects the clustering of dust grains in different region within the sheath as a result of which dust agglomeration forms nebulons: patches of dust cloud-like structures with changing fleece.
