Waves and instabilities in realistic plasma configurations KU Leuven
The most essential physical information on plasma behaviour is available in its natural means of vibrations: what are the waves and instabilities the plasma can support? In the complete absence of plasma, a vacuum supports the well-known electromagnetic light waves embedded in the Maxwell equations. These electromagnetic waves get modified in the presence of matter, and these modifications can be studied using a two-fluid description where ...

Experimental and theoretical study of the fundamental mechanisms of nitrogen fixation by plasma and plasma-catalysis: towards the development of novel, environmentally friendly and efficient processes. Ghent University
Nitrogen is a crucial element for living organisms on earth. Transforming atmospheric N2 into
molecules that can be incorporated by most organisms (N2 fixation) is either done by
microorganisms or through energetically costly chemical processes (lightning strikes, Haber-
Bosch (H-B) process). As the theoretical limit for the energy consumption of N2 fixation via
non-thermal plasma (NTP) is more than 2.5 times lower ...
