Quantum electrodynamical effects in dusty plasmas

• A new nonlinear electromagnetic wave mode in a magnetized dusty plasma is predicted. Its existence depends on the interaction of an intense circularly polarized electromagnetic wave with a dusty plasma, where quantum electrodynamical photon-photon scattering is taken into account. Specifically, we consider a dusty electron-positron-ion plasma and show that the propagation of the new mode is admitted. It could be of significance for the physics of supernova remnants and in neutron star formation.
