Scientific paper

The region of charge nonneutrality surrounding a metal antenna that is inserted in an infinite homogeneous plasma is called a plasma sheath. Sheaths form in several time scales that are determined by the electron and the ion plasma periods until an eventual steady-state Langmuir sheath forms. This article describes the sheaths surrounding an antenna in a dusty plasma consisting of electrons, ions, and heavy dust particles to which electrons have attached themselves. Such a plasma is found in active comets and in the rings surrounding several planets in the solar system and in rings around mature stars.
