Statistical theory of dusty plasmas: microscopic equations and Bogolyubov-Born-Green-Kirkwood-Yvon hierarchy.

Basic principles of statistical theory of dusty plasmas are formulated with regard for electron and ion absorption by dust particles. Rigorous microscopic equations are introduced and employed to derive the BBGKY hierarchy and kinetic equations. The charging processes are shown to induce a considerable modification of both microscopic and kinetic equations for plasma particles and grains. In the approximation of dominant influence of charging collisions, explicit kinetic equations are derived and applied to calculate stationary distributions of grain velocities and charges.
