The Poisson's equation is solved in the sheath to obtain the electric field at the wall, which repels the dust particle from the wall. The electric field decreases as the direction of the magnetic field approaches parallel to the wall. On the other hand the ion flow velocity becomes larger at moderate oblique angle than that without magnetic field. It is clarified that in the case of the strong magnetic field the critical dust radius for the release of the dust increases as magnetic field becomes more acute. In the case of the weak magnetic field, the critical radius disappears at the moderate angles of the oblique magnetic field.

Times Cited Count：5 Percentile：37.19(Materials Science, Multidisciplinary)In the study of dust behavior in plasma it is usually assumed that plasma particles are Maxwell distributed. If the dust is located on the conducting wall, the surrounding particle distribution can significantly differ from the Maxwellian. In this work we study the effect of truncation of electron velocity distribution on release conditions of a spherical dust particle from a plasma-facing wall. The truncation effect enlarges the electric field at the wall compared compared to the Maxwellian. The stronger electric field at the wall makes the released region smaller when the gravitational force is directed from the wall.

An external non-uniform electric field is approximated by the polynomial of the axial coordinate and the bipolar coordinate is introduced in order to employ the boundary condition. The result is applied to the dust in the non-uniform electric field in the Debye sheath in front of the conducting wall. The results are useful for analyzing the shielding effects of the plasma surrounding a dust particle.
