This book was released on 1973 with total page 60 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Experimental data resulting from an investigation of the electroacoustic probe in an argon afterglow plasma for a planar geometry indicates the value of the probe as a diagnostic tool. It is suited to airborne payloads because of its small size and rugged construction. In carrying out the study, some of the parameters that were varied were the pressure (range = 100 to 1000 micro m), input power to the probe (range = 40 dB), and frequency of input signal (350 to 600 MHz). The effect of changing physical dimensions of the probe was also considered. Electroacoustic probe predictions of the electron density gradients close to a surface were found to compare closely with the electron density gradients obtained with a floating double Langmuir probe. Treating the electroacoustic probe as similar to a resonant circuit produced some preliminary results that show up as familiar Q values. Both linear and nonlinear responses of the electroacoustic probe are illustrated. One nonlinear phenomenon--induced oscillations in sections of the resonance curve--is discussed in detail. (Author).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The microstrip plasma probe, a new diagnostic tool for use in the investigation of ionized media, has been developed and successfully tested both in the laboratory and in an actual flight. It is flush mounted (therefore causes no aerodynamic disturbances); simple in geometric shape (therefore can be modified to fit curved surfaces and ruggedized to withstand shock and vibration); only a fraction of the operating wavelength in length (therefore saves on payload space); and operates with low power (therefore does not disturb the plasma which it is measuring). Experimental results, obtained from both the laboratory and from an actual flight, have been compared to theory and to experimental data from other probes. In both instances the results are close.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Introducing basic principles of plasma physics and their applications to space, laboratory and astrophysical plasmas, this new edition provides updated material throughout. Topics covered include single-particle motions, kinetic theory, magnetohydrodynamics, small amplitude waves in hot and cold plasmas, and collisional effects. New additions include the ponderomotive force, tearing instabilities in resistive plasmas and the magnetorotational instability in accretion disks, charged particle acceleration by shocks, and a more in-depth look at nonlinear phenomena. A broad range of applications are explored: planetary magnetospheres and radiation belts, the confinement and stability of plasmas in fusion devices, the propagation of discontinuities and shock waves in the solar wind, and analysis of various types of plasma waves and instabilities that can occur in planetary magnetospheres and laboratory plasma devices. With step-by-step derivations and self-contained introductions to mathematical methods, this book is ideal as an advanced undergraduate to graduate-level textbook, or as a reference for researchers.

Download or read book Laser Measurement Technology written by Axel Donges and published by Springer. This book was released on 2014-10-14 with total page 427 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Laser measurement technology has evolved in the last years in a versatile and reflationary way. Today, its methods are indispensable for research and development activities as well as for production technology. Every physicist and engineer should therefore gain a working knowledge of laser measurement technology. This book closes the gap of existing textbooks. It introduces in a comprehensible presentation laser measurement technology in all its aspects. Numerous figures, graphs and tables allow for a fast access into the matter. In the first part of the book the important physical and optical basics are described being necessary to understand laser measurement technology. In the second part technically significant measuring methods are explained and application examples are presented. Target groups of this textbook are students of natural and engineering sciences as well as working physicists and engineers, who are interested to make themselves familiar with laser measurement technology and its fascinating potentials.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is an up-to-date review of studies in the physics of pulsed electrical discharges in a vacuum. It gives the reader detailed information on the processes occurring at electrodes and in vacuum gaps and on the mechanisms of discharge initiation and development. Modern techniques and equipment are described in detail. Their high temporal and spatial resolution may be used to solve a number of problems concerning the short-term and microscopic aspects of discharges. A summary is given of a great deal of experimental data on the kinetics of vacuum breakdown. The authors used these results to identify a series of steps in the vacuum breakdown phenomenon. They were the first to discover and describe the explosive electron emission phenomenon and to show its fundamental role in the spark and the arc stages of a discharge. The information in this book may encourage the reader to design new experiments. The results presented may be applied to solve specific research or engineering problems.
