Abstract

The anomalous dissipation related to the effect of charging of dust particles that gives rise to new physical phenomena, effects, and mechanisms represents one of the main specific features of dusty plasma that makes it different from conventional plasma containing no charged dust particles. We analyze the process of anomalous dissipation in the context of description of the dynamics of dust particles in dusty plasma of the Mercury’s exosphere. An analytical description of oscillations of a dust particle above the surface of Mercury is presented. The frequency of charging of dust particles that characterizes the anomalous dissipation determines the damping of such oscillations. It is demonstrated that the anomalous dissipation is important for substantiation of the model of levitating dust particles that is used for description of dusty plasma above Mercury. The results of numerical simulations that justify the use of the discussed model are presented.
