  2. Plasma (physics) - Wikipedia

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

    Impermeable plasma is a type of thermal plasma which acts like an impermeable solid with respect to gas or cold plasma and can be physically pushed. Interaction of cold gas and thermal plasma was briefly studied by a group led by Hannes Alfvén in 1960s and 1970s for its possible applications in insulation of fusion plasma from the reactor ...

  3. Atmospheric-pressure plasma - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atmospheric-pressure_plasma

    An atmospheric-pressure plasma jet formed by helium flowing through a concentric dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) Atmospheric-pressure plasma (or AP plasma or normal pressure plasma) is a plasma in which the pressure approximately matches that of the surrounding atmosphere – the so-called normal pressure.

  4. State of matter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/State_of_matter

    A vapor can exist in equilibrium with a liquid (or solid), in which case the gas pressure equals the vapor pressure of the liquid (or solid). A supercritical fluid (SCF) is a gas whose temperature and pressure are above the critical temperature and critical pressure respectively. In this state, the distinction between liquid and gas disappears.

  6. Phase transition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phase_transition

    Below the boiling point, the liquid is the more stable state of the two, whereas above the boiling point the gaseous form is the more stable. Common transitions between the solid, liquid, and gaseous phases of a single component, due to the effects of temperature and/or pressure are identified in the following table:

  7. Blood plasma - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blood_plasma

    Blood plasma is a light amber-colored liquid component of blood in which blood cells are absent, but which contains proteins and other constituents of whole blood in suspension. It makes up about 55% of the body's total blood volume. [ 1 ]

  8. Plasma parameters - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plasma_parameters

    The plasma collisionality is defined as [4] [5] =, where denotes the electron-ion collision frequency, is the major radius of the plasma, is the inverse aspect-ratio, and is the safety factor. The plasma parameters m i {\displaystyle m_{\mathrm {i} }} and T i {\displaystyle T_{\mathrm {i} }} denote, respectively, the mass and temperature of the ...

  9. Physiology of decompression - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Physiology_of_decompression

    The absorption of gases in liquids depends on the solubility of the specific gas in the specific liquid, the concentration of gas (customarily expressed as partial pressure) and temperature. [2] In the study of decompression theory, the behaviour of gases dissolved in the body tissues is investigated and modeled for variations of pressure over ...
