Abstract:
Scattering in the attractive screened Coulomb (Yukawa) potential in the limit of strong interaction is investigated. It is shown that the scattering occurs mostly with large angles. The corresponding momentum-transfer cross section is calculated. The results are applied to estimate the ion drag force acting on an isolated micron-sized grain in low-pressure bulk plasmas.
