Non-equilibrium plasmas have been intensively studied over the past century in the context
of material processing, environmental remediation, ozone generation, excimer lamps and …

Fast gas heating (FGH) is an abrupt increase in gas temperature in non-equilibrium low-
temperature plasma due to relaxation of electronically excited states of atoms and …

Guided ionization waves, or plasma streamers, are increasingly important for many
applications in spanning materials processing and biomedicine. The highly reproducible …

The main focus of the review is on dynamics and kinetics of near-surface discharge
plasmas, such as surface dielectric barrier discharges sustained by AC and repetitively …

Non-equilibrium plasma discharges can create a favorable environment for combustion
processes, at low energy cost.“How favorable?” and “How low?” are two open questions that …

Premixed flame ignition is a fundamental issue in combustion. A basic understanding of this
phenomenon is crucial for fire safety control and for the development of advanced …

This paper provides an overview of modern research on magnetoplasma methods of
influencing gas-dynamic and plasma flows. The main physical mechanisms that control the …

The prediction of a flame response to plasma assistance requires extensive knowledge of
discharge-induced plasma kinetics. Detailed studies of nanosecond discharges are …

Plasma actuators used for active flow control are widely studied because they could replace
mechanical actuators. Industrial applications of these plasma actuators sometimes require a …

Plasma synthetic jet actuators (PSJAs), capable of producing high-velocity pulsed jets at
high frequency, are well suited for high-Reynolds-number subsonic and supersonic flow …
