Observation of two distinct cold, dense ion populations at geosynchronous orbit: Local time asymmetry, solar wind dependence and origin [PDF]
International audienceWe report on the observation of two distinct cold (TiNi>2 cm?3) ion populations at geosynchronous orbit. A statistical study was performed on measurements from the geosynchronous Los Alamos plasma instruments, for the period 1990 ...

Quantification and physics of cold plasma treatment of organic liquid surfaces
Plasma treatment increases the surface energy of condensed phases: solids and liquids. Two independent methods of the quantification of the influence imposed by a cold radiofrequency air plasma treatment on the surface properties of silicone oils (polydimethylsiloxane) of various molecular masses and castor oil are introduced.

Redox for Repair: Cold Physical Plasmas and Nrf2 Signaling Promoting Wound Healing [PDF]
Chronic wounds and ulcers are major public health threats. Being a substantial burden for patients and health care systems alike, better understanding of wound pathophysiology and new avenues in the therapy of chronic wounds are urgently needed. Cold physical plasmas are particularly effective in promoting wound closure, irrespective of its etiology ...
