Abstract The interactions of a moving charge (namely, one additional dust particle) with a two-dimensional dusty plasma in gas discharge experiment are studied by means of the linearized hydrodynamic theory for the dusty plasma. Expressions are derived for the induced potential and the stopping power of the moving charge, when the charge flights parallel to and over the dust layer. The numerical results are obtained for different discharge pressures and different distances from the moving charge to the dust layer. The results show that the moving charge excites a V-shaped disturbance of induced potential or the so-called Mach cone in the dust layer, while the charge itself loses its energy.
