This topical review gathers the last updates concerning caesium-free negative ion sources
presented during the 63 rd Course of the International school of Quantum Electronics of the …

Plasma-catalytic ammonia synthesis is receiving ever increasing attention, especially in
packed bed dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) reactors. The latter typically operate in the …

We present a zero-dimensional plasma kinetics model, including both surface and gas
phase kinetics, to determine the role of vibrationally excited states in plasma-catalytic …

Resonant vibrational excitation cross sections and the corresponding rate coefficients for
electron–N 2 collisions occurring through the ${\rm N} _2^-(X\,{}^ 2\Pi_ {\rm g}) $ resonant …

Non-equilibrium inductively coupled plasmas (ICPs) operating in hydrogen are of significant
interest for applications including large-area materials processing. Increasing control of …

Low-pressure hydrogen plasmas have found applications in a variety of technology areas
including fusion, neutral beam injection and material processing applications. To better …

The investigation of chemi-ionization processes provides unique information on how the
reaction dynamics depend on the energy and structure of the transition state which relate to …

Abstract Machine learning (ML) is used to provide reactions rates appropriate for models of
low temperature plasmas with a focus on A+ B $\rightarrow $ C+ D binary chemical …

A theoretical investigation of electron-D 2 resonant collisions—via the low-lying and the
Rydberg states of D $ _2^-$—is presented for vibrational excitation, dissociative electron …
