This study investigates the impact of random forces caused by fluctuations in a complex plasma on the dynamics of charged dust grains. Analytical dependencies are derived for the kinetic energy, autocorrelation functions of velocities, mass transfer functions, and mean-square average displacements of the grains when subjected to the effect of two random forces. A method is proposed to consider more than two random forces of different nature. The feasibility of simulating the motion of dust grains in complex plasma using Langevin equations with a non-equal temperature to the surrounding gas is discussed.
The effect of random forces, which are caused by fluctuations in a complex plasma, on the dynamics of charged dust grains is studied. Analytical dependences are obtained for the kinetic energy, the autocorrelation functions of velocities, the mass transfer functions, and the mean-square average displacements of the grains in the case of a grain moving under the effect of two random forces. A method is proposed for accounting for more than two random forces of different nature. The possibility is discussed of simulating the motion of dust grains in complex plasma by the Langevin equations with a temperature that is not equal to the temperature of the surrounding gas.
