Thermal plasma flows provide a uniquely high specific enthalpy source that is well suited to
transformation of matter, often via phase changes. As a consequence, numerous thermal …

Scattering data, measured for rare gas–rare gas systems under high angular and energy
resolution conditions, have been used to probe the reliability of a recently proposed …

The present perspective review focuses on the role of the precursor state, controlling the
dynamical evolution of elementary processes, whose structure and stability are often difficult …

The thermophysical properties, including composition, thermodynamic properties, transport
coefficients and net emission coefficients, of thermal plasmas formed from pure iso-C4 …

C 5 F 10 O has recently been found to be a very promising alternative to SF 6. This paper is
devoted to the investigation of compositions, thermodynamic properties, and transport …

Accurate transport properties of non-ionized gas mixtures of C, H, O, N, and Si-containing
species at temperatures up to 4000 K are essential in many scientific fields. Mixture transport …

Transport properties of high-temperature helium and hydrogen plasmas as well as Jupiter
atmosphere have been calculated for equilibrium and nonequilibrium conditions using …

This thesis focuses on the coupling between flow, ablation, and radiation phenomena
encountered in the stagnation region of atmospheric entry vehicles with carbon-phenolic …

Collisions between nitrogen (N) and nitrogen ion (N+) are fundamental phenomena in the
Earth and planetary atmospheres. In this work, we carried out a theoretical study of collision …

Calculated thermophysical properties of nitrogen plasmas in and out of thermal equilibrium
are presented. The cut-off of the partition functions due to the lowering of the ionization …
