Simulation of the Dynamics of Strongly Interacting Macroparticles in a Weakly Ionized Plasma

摘要

The method of molecular dynamics is used to study the dynamic behavior of a nonideal system of particles interacting through screened Coulomb potential. The behavior of the self-diffusion coefficient of particles as a function of the nonideality parameter is investigated. The conditions of the crystallization of such a system are discussed, as well as the possibility of using the crystallization criterion, based on the dynamic characteristics of the system.
