The linear wave solution and a 'dispersion' relation were derived. It was found that in an infinite area, the mode is reduced to a 'classical' dust acoustic wave in the region away from the center. If the dusty plasma is confined in a finite region, however, the breathing (or heart-beating) behavior would be found as observed in many experiments.展开更多
