Torsions effect on energy transfer in crystal lattice.
POSTER
Abstract
Vertical pairs of spinning dust particles, also known as torsions, are an area of active interest in dusty plasma physics. Torsions have been shown to propagate energy into the nearby surroundings of the plasma crystal structure. This presentation delves into how a torsion and energy perturbation from a laser pulse interact within the crystal lattice. Some of the energy from the laser will be transmitted past the torsion and into the surrounding structure. Some of the energy will be reflected in the direction of the laser. Some of the energy will be absorbed by the torsion pair and alter its motion. We will discuss some of the techniques used to calculate the transmission, reflection, and absorption coefficients in the system.
