Abstract

A three-dimentional particle–particle particle–mesh (P3M) model for dusty plasma has been developed. The model implies a fully kinetic description for all species in the plasma, being able to resolve the finite size effects for dust grains. The model was used for simulation of charging process for the dust grains in a capacitive radiofrequency discharge.
