Technologies based on non-equilibrium, low-temperature plasmas are ubiquitous in today's
society. Plasma modeling plays an essential role in their understanding, development and …

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 …

Abstract The LisbOn KInetics Boltzmann (LoKI-B) is an open-source simulation tool
(https://github. com/IST-Lisbon/LoKI) that solves a time and space independent form of the …

This paper reviews the basics of kinetic modelling in low-temperature N 2–O 2 plasmas,
including the strong coupling between electron, vibrational, chemical and surface kinetics …

Two modes of the atmospheric-pressure plasma discharge, distinguished by the dominant O
3 and NO x species are studied numerically and experimentally. To investigate the mode …

The ozone synthesis and decomposition processes in a heated ozone generator (10–70° C)
in a pulse discharge was investigated. Concentrated ozone (up to 200 g Nm− 3) was also …

Several CO 2 electron impact dissociation cross sections are available in the literature,
different in magnitude and threshold, hindering the understanding of CO 2 dissociation …

Nonequilibrium flows of air components behind reflected shock waves are systematically
studied on the basis of several theoretical models for the rate coefficients of fully coupled …

This work presents a reaction mechanism for oxygen plasmas, ie a set of reactions and
corresponding rate coefficients that are validated against benchmark experiments. The …

The time evolution of the CO 2 dissociation fraction in pulsed discharges is studied through
kinetic modeling. The simulations are compared against experimental data obtained in …
