This paper describes the recent progress in understanding the nature of striations in rare
gas plasmas. Striations are ionization waves with unique properties determined by transport …

This colloquium examines the theoretical modeling of nonequilibrium low-temperature (tens
of thousands of degrees) plasmas, which involves a juxtaposition of three distinct fields …

In this work, on the basis of a unified model from the point of view of describing the gas
discharge gap and electrodes for 2D geometry, numerical calculations were carried out to …

An integrated theoretical and numerical framework is developed to study the dynamics of
energy coupling, gas heating and generation of active species by repetitively pulsed …

A self-consistent framework for modeling and simulations of plasma-assisted ignition and
combustion is established. In this framework, a'frozen electric field'modeling approach is …

A hybrid model was used to simulate a dc argon micro glow-discharge at atmospheric
pressure. The simulations were carried out for a pin-plate electrode configuration with inter …

Modelling approaches used for the description of the cathode region of dc glow discharges
are reviewed, with the focus on hybrid models which combine the fluid description of positive …

A model of a near-cathode region in high-pressure arc discharges is developed in the
framework of the hydrodynamic (diffusion) approximation. Governing equations are solved …

This paper reports gas breakdown characteristics in microgaps with multiple concentric
protrusions on the cathode in the transition from the Townsend to the subnormal glow …

This review presents a unified treatment of glow discharges with electrostatic confinement of
fast electrons. These discharges include hollow cathode discharges, wire and cage …
