  2. Plasma cutting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plasma_cutting

    Plasma cutting. Plasma cutting is a process that cuts through electrically conductive materials by means of an accelerated jet of hot plasma. Typical materials cut with a plasma torch include steel, stainless steel, aluminum, brass and copper, although other conductive metals may be cut as well. Plasma cutting is often used in fabrication shops ...

  3. Pinch (plasma physics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pinch_(plasma_physics)

    Basic mechanism. This is a basic explanation of how a pinch works. (1) Pinches apply a high voltage and current across a tube. This tube is filled with a gas, typically a fusion fuel such as deuterium. If the product of the voltage & the charge is higher than the ionization energy of the gas the gas ionizes. (2) Current jumps across this gap.

  4. Two-stream instability - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Two-stream_instability

    Two-stream instability. The two-stream instability is a very common instability in plasma physics. It can be induced by an energetic particle stream injected in a plasma, or setting a current along the plasma so different species ( ions and electrons) can have different drift velocities. The energy from the particles can lead to plasma wave ...

  5. Plasma torch - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plasma_torch

    A plasma torch cutter. A plasma torch (also known as a plasma arc, plasma gun, plasma cutter, or plasmatron) is a device for generating a directed flow of plasma. [1][2][3] The plasma jet can be used for applications including plasma cutting, plasma arc welding, plasma spraying, and plasma gasification for waste disposal. [4]

  6. Debye sheath - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Debye_sheath

    Debye sheath. The Debye sheath (also electrostatic sheath) is a layer in a plasma which has a greater density of positive ions, and hence an overall excess positive charge, that balances an opposite negative charge on the surface of a material with which it is in contact. The thickness of such a layer is several Debye lengths thick, a value ...

  7. Spitzer resistivity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spitzer_resistivity

    The Spitzer resistivity (or plasma resistivity) is an expression describing the electrical resistance in a plasma, which was first formulated by Lyman Spitzer in 1950. [ 1][ 2] The Spitzer resistivity of a plasma decreases in proportion to the electron temperature as . The inverse of the Spitzer resistivity is known as the Spitzer conductivity .

  8. Plasma modeling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plasma_modeling

    Plasma modeling. Plasma modeling refers to solving equations of motion that describe the state of a plasma. It is generally coupled with Maxwell's equations for electromagnetic fields or Poisson's equation for electrostatic fields. There are several main types of plasma models: single particle, kinetic, fluid, hybrid kinetic/fluid, gyrokinetic ...

  9. Donald Bitzer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Donald_Bitzer

    Donald Bitzer. Donald L. Bitzer (born January 1, 1934) [1] is an American electrical engineer and computer scientist. He was the co-inventor of the plasma display, is largely regarded as the "father of PLATO ", and has made a career of improving classroom productivity by using computer and telecommunications technologies.
