Structural transformation of graphite by arc-discharge [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The formation of novel structures by the passage of an electric current through graphite is described. These structures apparently consist of hollow three-dimensional graphitic shells bounded by curved and faceted planes, typically made up of two ...

Wave enhanced transport in an arc discharge [PDF]

open access: yesPlasma Physics, 1974
Enhanced particle transport due to a rotational flute instability in the plasma surrounding a hollow-cathode discharge was studied. The effect of enhanced transport on the plasma density profile was measured as a function of instability amplitude by changing potentials on end-ring boundaries.

Translational, rotational, vibrational and electron temperatures of a gliding arc discharge [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Translational, rotational, vibrational and electron temperatures of a gliding arc discharge in atmospheric pressure air were experimentally investigated using in situ, non-intrusive optical diagnostic techniques. The gliding arc discharge was driven by a

MHD-RLC discharge model and the efficiency characteristics of plasma synthetic jet actuator [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Major factors affecting efficiency of plasma synthetic jet actuator (PSJA) are analyzed based on a new discharge model in the present paper. The model couples the magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) equations with the resistor–inductor–capacitor (RLC) equations ...

Arc discharge sliding over a conducting surface [PDF]

open access: yes, 1997
Results of experimental and theoretical studies of the arc discharge which slides over the surface of a conductor are reported. Experiments were performed in air and argon ambients at various pressures.

Experimental study of visual corona under aeronautic pressure conditions using low-cost imaging sensors [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Visual corona tests have been broadly applied for identifying the critical corona points of diverse high-voltage devices, although other approaches based on partial discharge or radio interference voltage measurements are also widely applied to detect ...

Characteristics of EMI generated by negative metal-positive dielectric voltage stresses due to spacecraft charging [PDF]

open access: yes, 1985
Charging of spacecraft surfaces by the environmental plasma can result in differential potentials between metallic structure and adjacent dielectric surfaces in which the relative polarity of the voltage stress is either negative dielectric/positive ...

High-Intensity Discharge Lamp and Duffing Oscillator - Similarities and Differences

open access: yes, 2017
The processes inside the arc tube of high-intensity discharge lamps are investigated by finite element simulations. The behavior of the gas mixture inside the arc tube is governed by differential equations describing mass, energy and charge conservation ...

Characterization of ISF-VAT performance in weak magnetic nozzle

open access: yes, 2020
Vacuum arc thruster performance in a magnetic nozzle configuration is experimentally characterized. Measurements are performed on a miniature coaxial thruster with an anode inner diameter of $1.8$ mm. The magnetic field B is produced by a single air coil,
