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.

Thermal instability in ionized plasma [PDF]
We study magnetothermal instability in the ionized plasmas including the effects of Ohmic, ambipolar and Hall diffusion. Magnetic field in the single fluid approximation does not allow transverse thermal condensations, however, non-ideal effects highly ...

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

Active experiments in space plasmas [PDF]
Rather than observing purely natural phenomena, space physicists have in recent years planned and conducted ‘controlled’ experiments in the ionospheric and magnetospheric plasmas. In such experiments, the medium in the vicinity of the space vehicle is deliberately perturbed by the injection of a signal that has known characteristics; the signal may be ...

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

Polar cap arcs from the magnetosphere to the ionosphere: kinetic modelling and observations by Cluster and TIMED [PDF]
On 1 April 2004 the GUVI imager onboard the TIMED spacecraft spots an isolated and elongated polar cap arc. About 20 min later, the Cluster satellites detect an isolated upflowing ion beam above the polar cap.

Nonlinear aspects of quantum plasma physics [PDF]
Dense quantum plasmas are ubiquitous in planetary interiors and in compact astrophysical objects, in semiconductors and micro-mechanical systems, as well as in the next generation intense laser-solid density plasma interaction experiments and in quantum ...

Polar cap ion beams during periods of northward IMF: Cluster statistical results [PDF]
Above the polar caps and during prolonged periods of northward IMF, the Cluster satellites detect upward accelerated ion beams with energies up to a few keV.
