Plasma Physics Laboratory

#Sciences

In this laboratory, plasma is generated using electromagnetic waves in order to study how plasma density and ionic energy are controlled through electric and magnetic fields.

Plasma Physics Laboratory

The Lab focuses on low temperature plasmas, especially those generated in direct-current and radio-frequency discharges.

The main applications of these studies are electric propulsion for space vehicles and material modifications.

The Lab also studies the interaction of strong magnetic fields with plasma in pulsed devices, such as plasma pinches and plasma opening switches.
