Abstract
We theoretically investigate conditions for the refraction of long-wavelength dust acoustic waves by arrays of periodic cylinders in a dusty plasma. This is based on a recent analysis of the refraction of shallow water waves by periodic cylinder arrays (Hu and Chan, Phys. Rev. Lett.95 (2005), 154501). In the dusty plasma case, however, the boundary conditions involve the formation of voids around the cylinders. Possible experimental conditions are discussed.
