As we see from Eq. (5.7), the force acting on a non-spherical grain is no longer
aligned with the direction of the relative velocity W
!
, unlike the case of a spherical
grain in Eq. (5.2). The departure is due to both the grain orientation and grain
spinning (correspondingly the second and third terms on the right-hand side, RHS,
of Eq. (5.7)). We notice that the second term was also derived in [62] from the direct
calculation of the force acting on the grain for the combined Coulomb and dipole
grain-plasma interaction potentials.
