Plasma afterglows interacting with dust grains present a dynamic environment in which
negatively charged dust grains leaving the plasma bulk experience an environment with …

In this paper, a detailed investigation of the spatio-temporal dynamics of a pulsed microwave
plasma is presented. The plasma is ignited inside a dielectric tube in a repetitively pulsed …

A large number of investigations involving neutral metastable atoms have been carried out
with the purpose of discussing both macroscopic and microscopic characteristics of low …

In this work, experimental and theoretical study of pulsed discharge in argon has been
carried out. The experimental data on the dynamics of electron density, electron …

An experimental cold-gas study of the response of a choked convergent–divergent nozzle to
swirl perturbations is presented. The perturbations were obtained by means of upstream …

Collisional-radiative models for excited rare-gas atoms in low-temperature plasmas are a
widely investigated topic. When these plasmas are optically thick, an'escape factor'is …

Non-equilibrium distribution functions of electrons and ions play an important role in plasma
physics. A prominent example is the kinetic Bohm criterion. Since its first introduction it has …

Time-resolved investigations of excited argon atom density and temperature and ground-
state titanium atom density during high-power impulse magnetron sputtering (HiPIMS …

Radio frequency inductively coupled plasma sources are widely used in low temperature
industrial processing. Recent computer simulations and experiments indicate significant …

An experimental study on the role of an external longitudinal magnetic field on the
characteristics changes of pulsed plasma stream, produced in argon medium, is carried out …
