Abstract:
Using molecular dynamical simulations, compressional shocks in two-dimensional (2D) dusty plasmas are quantitatively investigated under various conditions. A universal relationship between the thermal and the drift velocities after shocks is discovered in 2D Yukawa systems. Using the equation of state of 2D Yukawa liquids, and the obtained pressure from the Rankine-Hugoniot relation, an analytical relation between the thermal and the drift velocities is derived, which well agrees with the discovered universal relationship for various conditions.
