Physics of Plasmas, published by AIP Publishing in cooperation with the APS Division of Plasma Physics, is committed to the publication of original research in all areas of experimental, computational, and theoretical plasma physics. Physics of Plasmas publishes in-depth review manuscripts, forward-looking perspectives, Tutorials on active topics, and Special Topics highlighting new developments. Every year a special issue publishes the invited and review papers from the most recent meeting of the APS Division of Plasma Physics.
The majority of studies on laser-driven proton–boron nuclear reaction is based on the measurement of α -particles with solid-state nuclear tracks detector (Cr39). However, Cr39's interpretation ...
The usual approach on electrostatic wave decay process for a weak beam-plasma system considers two different wave modes interplaying, the Langmuir and ion-sound mode. In the present paper, a ...
We present numerical simulations used to interpret laser-driven plasma experiments at the GSI Helmholtz Centre for Heavy Ion Research. The mechanisms by which non-thermal particles are accelerated in ...
The applicability of relativistic magnetohydrodynamics (RMHD) and its generalization to two-fluid models (including the Hall and inertial effects) is systematically investigated by using the method ...
We report on abnormal topological structures in the particles and electromagnetic field distributions induced by current filamentation instability, with emphasis on the effects of plasma ions. In the ...
In this paper, a one-dimensional 10-moment multi-fluid plasma model is developed and applied to low-temperature magnetized plasmas. The 10-moment model solves for six anisotropic pressure terms, in ...
Linear plasmas, compared to small-area low-temperature plasma jets, offer a larger single-treatment area with a brush-like pattern, making them highly promising for various applications. This paper ...
This study establishes a two-dimensional fluid model of nanosecond surface dielectric barrier discharge (nSDBD) at atmospheric air to investigate the effects of positive and negative sinusoidal ...
When stellar radiation interacts with a molecular cloud, the cloud's fate depends on the strength of the incident radiation and the radiation's mean-free-path within the cloud [F. Bertoldi, ...
