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 comprehensive and in-depth review manuscripts and forward-looking perspectives covering important areas of study and Special Topics highlighting new and cutting-edge developments in plasma physics. Every year a special issue publishes the invited and review papers from the most recent meeting of the APS Division of Plasma Physics.
We study the possibility of terahertz pulse generation based on cyclotron super-radiance (SR) of an extended (in the scale of the wavelength) bunch of rotating electrons, which moves in a cylindrical ...
The advent of a fusion energy industry is being strongly supported by academics and universities, with the majority of fusion companies launching out of universities. Universities also play critical ...
This paper is aimed at investigating the role of electrons in creation of currents in plasma equilibria with high plasma pressure ( β ≈ 1 ). Despite the long history of studies of these ...
We present new collisional-modeling calculations of tungsten plasmas at electron density of about 5 × 1013 cm−3 and for electron temperatures in the range 0.8–5 keV. These conditions are relevant to ...
We consider the limiting current from an emitting patch whose size is much smaller than the anode–cathode spacing. The limiting current is formulated in terms of an integral equation. It is solved ...
Thermodynamic properties and equations of state of the electron–positron plasma (or gas) at high and very high temperatures ( T ≥ 170 keV) are derived and investigated. We have derived ...
This work is first focused to experimentally study the interface instability and expansion mechanism of thermal plasma jet and provide a better understanding of the complex fluid-dynamic interactions ...
