Abstract

The structure and phase transition of a two-dimensional $(2 D)$ dusty plasma, confined by an anisotropic power-law potential and interacting via a screened Coulomb potential, were investigated using Monte Carlo simulations. The study varied the number of particles ( $N$ ), screening strength ( $k$ ), eccentricity parameter ( $α$ ), and confinement power parameter ( $n$ ) to characterize the system's structural properties. According to the simulation results, the melting temperature is influenced by the eccentricity parameter. Reducing the eccentricity results in a corresponding decrease in the melting temperature. However, the confinement power parameter does not appear to have any impact on the melting temperature.
