The author presents a bibliography and survey of the literature concerned with theory and
measurement of the stochastic behavior of pulsating partial-discharge (PD) phenomena that …

A detailed global model of atmospheric-pressure He+ H 2 O plasmas is presented in this
paper. The model incorporates 46 species and 577 reactions. Based on simulation results …

We report results from numerical simulations of star formation in the early universe that focus
on the dynamical behavior of metal-free gas under different initial and environmental …

At low temperatures, the main coolant in primordial gas is molecular hydrogen, H2. Recent
work has shown that primordial gas that is not collapsing gravitationally but is cooling from …

It is known that sulfurhexafluoride (SF/sub 6/), used as an insulating gas in HV apparatus,
will oxide in electrical discharges in the presence of oxygen or water vapor to form various …

The first generation of stars (commonly known as population III) are expected to form in low-
mass protogalaxies in which molecular hydrogen is the dominant coolant. Radiation from …

Studies of the formation of metal-free Population III stars usually focus primarily on the role
played by H2 cooling, on account of its large chemical abundance relative to other possible …

Plasma processing is a central technique in the fabrication of semiconductor devices. This
self-contained book provides an up-to-date description of plasma etching and deposition in …

We explore the gas dynamics near the dust sublimation radius of active galactic nucleus
(AGN). For the purpose, we perform axisymmetric radiation hydrodynamic simulations of a …

Low-pressure RF plasma in fluorohydrocarbon gas mixtures is widely used in modern
microelectronics, eg in the etching of materials with a low dielectric constant (low-k) …
