Numerous applications have required the study of CO 2 plasmas since the 1960s, from CO 2
lasers to spacecraft heat shields. However, in recent years, intense research activities on the …

The modeling of atmospheric gas, interacting with the space vehicles in re-entry conditions
in planetary exploration missions, requires a large set of scattering data for all those …

We consider oxygen interactions with realistic silica surfaces, including both experimentally
observed nondefective surface reconstructions and experimentally observed surface …

Aerodynamics, aerothermodynamics and thermal protection system response in high-
enthalpy and high-speed flow is heat transfer with interface effects in nature. Modelling and …

Two approaches to the modeling of surface kinetics in reactive plasmas are discussed.
Coarse‐grained deterministic models incorporate rate balance equations for coverages of …

The considerable level of uncertainty in the measured and calculated catalytic
recombination coefficients of atomic oxygen (O) on silica (SiO2) surfaces has posed a great …

The surface chemistry of silica is strongly affected by the nature of chemically active sites (or
defects) occurring on the surface. Here, we employ quantum mechanical electronic structure …

The O/β-quartz interaction is described by combining our time-dependent semiclassical
approach to atom–molecule/surface scattering with first-principles electronic structure …

The formation of NO 2 molecules on a Pyrex surface, as a result of NO oxidation by
adsorbed O atoms on the wall, is experimentally demonstrated and quantified. The …
