1.2.2 Screening parameter (к)

Another important parameter of dusty plasmas is the screening strength (к), which is the ratio of interparticle distance to the Debye length, and mathematically, it is written as <sup>к</sup> <sup>¼</sup> <sup>a</sup> λD , here "a" is the Wigner-Seitz (WS) radius and "λD" is the Debye length. The screening parameter (к) is also used for the classification of dusty plasmas.
