  2. Nyheim Plasma Institute - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A.J._Drexel_Plasma_Institute

    The Drexel Plasma Institute, in Camden, New Jersey, is the largest university-based plasma research facility in the United States.Led by Drexel University, the members of the scientific team are from University of Illinois at Chicago, Argonne National Laboratory, Pacific Northwest National Laboratory and Kurchatov Institute of Atomic Energy.

  3. Plasma (physics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plasma_(physics)

    The plasma approximation: The plasma approximation applies when the plasma parameter Λ, [26] representing the number of charge carriers within the Debye sphere is much higher than unity. [ 19 ] [ 20 ] It can be readily shown that this criterion is equivalent to smallness of the ratio of the plasma electrostatic and thermal energy densities.

  4. High-confinement mode - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High-confinement_mode

    In plasma physics and magnetic confinement fusion, the high-confinement mode (H-mode) is a phenomenon and operating regime of enhanced confinement in toroidal plasma such as tokamaks. When the applied heating power is raised above some threshold, the plasma transitions from the low-confinement mode (L-mode) to the H-mode where the energy ...

  5. Debye sheath - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Debye_sheath

    The thickness of such a layer is several Debye lengths thick, a value whose size depends on various characteristics of plasma (e.g. temperature, density, etc.). A Debye sheath arises in a plasma because the electrons usually have a temperature on the order of magnitude or greater than that of the ions and are much lighter.

  6. Field-reversed configuration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Field-reversed_configuration

    A field-reversed configuration (FRC) is a type of plasma device studied as a means of producing nuclear fusion. It confines a plasma on closed magnetic field lines without a central penetration. [1] [2] In an FRC, the plasma has the form of a self-stable torus, similar to a smoke ring.

  7. Plasma antenna - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plasma_antenna

    A plasma antenna is a type of radio antenna currently in development in which plasma is used instead of the metal elements of a traditional antenna. [1] A plasma antenna can be used for both transmission and reception . [ 2 ]

  8. Shiva Star - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shiva_Star

    The plasma projectiles would be shot at a speed expected to be 3000 km/s in 1995 and 10,000 km/s (3.3% of the speed of light) by 2000. A shot has the energy of 2.27 kg of TNT exploding. Doughnut-shaped rings of plasma and balls of lightning exploded with devastating thermal and mechanical effects when hitting their target and produced pulse of ...

  9. Plasma medicine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plasma_medicine

    Plasma, often called the fourth state of matter, is an ionized gas containing positive ions and negative ions or electrons, but is approximately charge neutral on the whole. The plasma sources used for plasma medicine are generally low temperature plasmas, and they generate ions, chemically reactive atoms and molecules, and UV-photons.
