Fine particle plasmas serve as a unique and otherwise-difficult-to-realize system where effects of strong coupling can be analyzed directly on the particle level. A drawback is the large mass of fine particles and the microgravity environment enables us to perform ideal experiments. On the International Space Station (ISS), the facility PK-3Plus for fine particle plasma experiments has been operated by Max-Planck Institute for Extraterrestrial Physics (MPE) and Joint Institute for High Temperatures (JIHT). As the next-generation facility, the launch of PK-4 has been planned and experimental tests have been done on the ground and on the air plane (parabolic flights). The purpose of this Working Group is to propose appropriate themes for PK-4. The main part of PK-4 is a long straight discharge tube where the plasma with the cylindrical symmetry can be generated. By the activity of previous years, we have analyzed the behavior of strongly coupled fine particles with the cylindrical symmetry such as formation of Coulomb crystals by the theory and simulations. In this fiscal year, we are finishing the construction of the PK-4-J (a Japanese version facility which has the same dimension as PK-4) and expecting to obtain the basic data under microgravity by parabolic flights in March.
