Safety Issues for fusion
Radiological
Dust:
• activated
• retains tritium
• ITER safety limit: 350 kg Tungsten dust
Fire & chemical explosion
Hydrogen:
• stored in dust
• released during accidental exposure to:
• air
• steam
• ITER safety limit: 6 kg dust allowed on hot surfaces

Particles were always there,
but you didn’t know it until you used the right diagnostics:

Formation: gas phase
Gas-phase formation in
astrophysics:
• Vapor flowing outward
from a carbon star cools
& nucleates  dust
• Dust grains then grow by
“coagulation”

The Early History of Dusty Plasmas
• The first observations of a dusty plasma in the laboratory
were made by Langmuir.
• He reported these observations on September 18, 1924
at an address at the Centenary of the Franklin Institute in
Philadelphia.
• “. . . we have observed some phenomena of remarkable
beauty which may prove to be of theoretical interest.”

1557, p 392 (1924)

S
2 – 4 Torr Argon
Langmuir’s Observations
• small tungsten ‘globules’ were sputtered into the
discharge from the filament
• these globules could be made to move upward
and their motions could easily be followed
visually
• by concentrating a beam of sunlight into the
tube, he could see a ‘very intense scattering’
from the particles
Langmuir’s conclusions
• Langmuir concluded that since the walls of the
tube are negatively charged, the particles must
also be negatively charged because they do not
deposit on the walls
• the negatively charged particles is surrounded by
a positive ion shielding cloud
• the negative particles can lose their charge when
moving through an ion sheath, and the resulting
neutral particles can condense into larger solid
particles

; corresponds to impact parameters ranging from
; the one that causes pi/2 scattering or collection on grain
; whichever is bigger, to the Debye length
; the outermost max function assures a nearly zero log lambda if the
; Debye length is shorter than the other length
; minimum value of 3 is suggested by Tsytovich (private communication)

Charging time
A particle’s charge:
• Can change at a finite rate, as plasma conditions change
• Fluctuates randomly as individual electrons & ions are collected
Characteristic time scale is called “charging time, can be defined as:
• charge / current of one of the two incident species“floating potential V

t  Kt
amm ncm 3
Kt = -1510 sec
for hydrogen, Te = Ti
Typically t 1 msec for a 1 micron grain in a glow discharge
