Overcoming sheaths overlapping in a small diameter metallic tube with one end closed and using a high density plasma from a high power pulsed hollow cathode discharge

open access: yesAIP Advances, 2018
High voltage sheaths are formed when plasmas are produced by application of high negative voltage pulses to conductive supports or components, as in Plasma Immersion Ion Implantation (PIII) treatments of materials surfaces.

Suprathermal electron acceleration during reconnection onset in the magnetotail [PDF]

open access: yesAnnales Geophysicae, 2011
We study one event of reconnection onset associated to a small substorm on 27 September 2006 by using Cluster observations at inter-spacecraft separation of about 10 000 km.

Spacecraft Charging Simulations of Probe B1 of Comet Interceptor during the Cometary Flyby

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Comet Interceptor will be the first mission to make a flyby of a long-period or interstellar comet. After launch, the spacecraft will wait at the Sun–Earth Lagrange point L2 for a yet-to-be-discovered comet to appear.

Variation of Floating Potential in the Topside Ionosphere Observed by STSAT-1 [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2014
In this study, we investigated the effect of space plasmas on the floating potential variation of a low-altitude, polar-orbiting satellite using the Langmuir Probe (LP) measurement onboard the STSAT-1 spacecraft.

A Study on Second Harmonic Excitation in Electron Beam–Plasma Instability

open access: yesFrontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2022
The electron beam–plasma interaction is a fundamental nonlinear plasma process that is frequently taking place in space and laboratory plasmas. Such an interaction is found to generate electromagnetic waves observed in space plasmas.

Nongyrotropic particle distributions in space plasmas [PDF]

open access: yesAnnales Geophysicae, 1999
In nonstationary, strong inhomogeneous or open plasmas particle orbits are rather complicated. If the nonstationary time scale is smaller than the gyration period, if the inhomogeneity scale is smaller than the gyration radius, i.e. at magnetic plasma

The Impact of Turbulence on the Ionosphere and Magnetosphere

open access: yesFrontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2021
An important property associated with turbulence in plasmas and fluids is anomalous transport. Plasma, being a good conductor, can in addition be affected by turbulence causing an anomalous resistivity that can significantly exceed its classical ...

Dusty plasmas: from Saturn’s rings to semiconductor processing devices

open access: yesAdvances in Physics: X, 2021
Dusty plasmas are plasmas containing solid particles in the size range of about 10 nm—10 μm. The particles acquire an electrical charge by collecting electrons and ions from the plasma, or by photo-electron emission if they are exposed to UV radiation ...
