Determining Metastable Ion Lifetime and History through Wave-Particle Interaction
F. Chu, F. Skiff
Laser-induced fluorescence (LIF) performed on metastable ions is frequently used to probe the dynamics of ground-state ion motions in many laboratory plasmas. However, these measur…
FPGA based demodulation of laser induced fluorescence in plasmas
Sean Mattingly, Fred Skiff
We present a field programmable gate array (FPGA)-based system that counts photons from laser-induced fluorescence (LIF) on a laboratory plasma. This is accomplished with FPGA-base…
A technique for plasma velocity-space cross-correlation
Sean Mattingly, Fred Skiff
An advance in experimental plasma diagnostics is presented and used to make the first measurement of a plasma velocity-space cross-correlation matrix. The velocity space correlatio…
Velocity space degrees of freedom of plasma fluctuations
Sean Mattingly, Fred Skiff
We present the first measurements of a plasma velocity-space cross-correlation matrix. A singular value decomposition is applied to this inherently Hermitian matrix, and the relati…
