Observation of an ultracold plasma instability
X. L. Zhang, R. S. Fletcher, S. L. Rolston
We present the first observation of an instability in an expanding ultracold plasma. We observe periodic emission of electrons from an ultracold plasma in weak, crossed magnetic an…

Using Three-Body Recombination to Extract Electron Temperatures of Ultracold Plasmas
R. S. Fletcher, X. L. Zhang, S. L. Rolston
Three-body recombination, an important collisional process in plasmas, increases dramatically at low electron temperatures, with an accepted scaling of T_e^-9/2. We measure three-b…
