The high-temperature phase transition in a plasma
Fedor V. Prigara
The line of phase equilibrium between the hot and cold phases of a plasma is derived from the intensity of thermal radiation as a function of the plasma density and temperature. Th…
The origin of transport barriers in toroidal plasmas
Fedor V. Prigara
A transport barrier in a toroidal plasma is treated as the boundary region between the hot and cold phases of the plasma. These two phases possess essentially different collisional…
Stabilization of nonlinear plasma waves by radiation
Fedor V. Prigara
It is shown that the interaction of a plasma with thermal radiation leads to the stabilization of both periodic and solitary nonlinear plasma waves. The stabilized periodic nonline…
The frequency of electron-ion collisions in a hot plasma
Fedor V. Prigara
It is shown that the anomalous resistivity, thermal conductivity, and magnetic pressure of hot plasmas can be explained by the assumption that the collisional electron-ion cross-se…
