  Dusty plasma is an admixture of electrons, ions, and massive charged solid
particles of sub-micron to micron-sized in the background of neutral gas. The
dust grain medium exhibits fluid (liquid) as well as solid-like characteristics
at different background plasma conditions. It supports various linear and
non-linear dynamical structures because of the external perturbation and
internal instabilities. The vortical or coherent structure in the dusty plasma
medium is a kind of self-sustained dynamical structure that is formed either by
instabilities or external forcing. In this review article, the author discusses
the past theoretical, experimental, and computational investigations on
vortical and coherent structures in unmagnetized as well as in magnetized dusty
plasma. The possible mechanisms to form vortices in dust grain medium are
discussed in detail. The studies on the evolution of vortices and their
correlation with turbulence are also reviewed.
