Counter-rotating density and current structures in a partially magnetized plasma
Pengze Xiao, Ya Zhang, Hongyu Wang +2
The first 3D kinetic simulation of a magnetron discharge reproduces the measured rotating spoke and reveals that density and current rotate in opposite directions: the spoke…
Breakdown modes of capacitively coupled plasma II: unsustainable discharges
