One of the primary basic plasma parameters within transient nonequilibrium plasmas is the
reduced electric field strength, roughly understood as the ratio of the electrical energy given …

Both fluid and particle models are commonly used to simulate streamer discharges. In this
paper, we quantitatively study the agreement between these approaches for axisymmetric …

Positive streamer discharges have been studied and modelled extensively in air. Here we
study positive streamers in CO 2 with and without oxygen admixtures; they are relevant for …

Positive streamer discharges require a source of free electrons ahead of them for their
growth. In air, these electrons are typically provided by photoionization. Here we investigate …

The present work improves a phenomenological plasma-assisted combustion model by
integrating the spatiotemporal distribution of plasma power density, thereby considering the …

Over the past two decades, research and development using various atmospheric-pressure
non-equilibrium plasmas has been conducted energetically for materials synthesis, surface …

Streamer discharges are thin plasma channels that precede lightning and sparks. They
usually evolve in bundles as stochastic tree-like structures and are inherently difficult to …

Streamer discharges can be used as a primary source of reactive species for plasma-
assisted combustion. In this research we investigate positive streamers in a stoichiometric …

Multiplication of primary electrons at a dielectrics/gas interface exposed to an external
electric field leads to the formation of ultra-fast contracted ionisation waves called surface …

Owing to its distinctive photon energy range, vacuum ultraviolet (VUV) emission plays a key
role in diverse photo-induced natural and technological processes. Atmospheric-pressure …
