Photophoretic force on microparticles in complex plasmas

Experimental observations are presented of unusual (‘abnormal’) microparticles, having trajectories very different from those of the majority of microparticles in the particle cloud in PK-3 Plus chamber (on board the International Space Station). To quantitatively study the mechanism driving this ‘i...
