Plasma stratification in AC discharges in noble gases at low currents
Vladimir I. Kolobov, Robert R. Arslanbekov
A hybrid kinetic-fluid model is used to study plasma stratification in alternating current (AC) discharges in noble gases at low plasma densities. Self-consistent coupled solutions…
Self-pulsing of Dielectric Barrier Discharges at Low Driving Frequencies
Shanti K. Thagunna, Vladimir I. Kolobov, Gary P. Zank
This paper investigates the self-pulsing of Dielectric Barrier Discharges (DBDs) at low driving frequencies. In particular, (a) the dependence of current on the product pd of gas p…
Peculiarities of charged particle kinetics in spherical plasma
V I Kolobov, R R Arslanbekov, H Liang
We describe kinetic simulations of transient problems in partially ionized weakly-collisional plasma around spherical bodies absorbing or emitting charged particles. Numerical solu…
Electron Kinetics in a Positive Column of AC Discharges in a Dynamic Regime
Nathan A Humphrey, Vladimir I Kolobov
We have performed hybrid kinetic-fluid simulations of a positive column in AC Argon discharges over a range of driving frequencies f and gas pressure p for the conditions when the…
Ionization waves (striations) in low-current DC discharges in noble gases obtained with a hybrid kinetic-fluid model
Vladimir I. Kolobov, Robert R. Arslanbekov
A hybrid kinetic-fluid model is used to study ionization waves (striations) in a low-current plasma column of DC discharges in noble gases. Coupled solutions of a kinetic equation…
A self-consistent hybrid model of kinetic striations in low-current Argon discharges
Vladimir I. Kolobov, Juan Alonso Guzman, Robert R. Arslanbekov
A self-consistent hybrid model of standing and moving striations was developed for low-current DC discharges in noble gases. We introduced the concept of surface diffusion in phase…
Kinetic Solvers with Adaptive Mesh in Phase Space for Low-Temperature Plasmas
Vladimir Kolobov, Robert Arslanbekov, Dmitry Levko
We describe the implementation of 1d1v and 1d2v Vlasov and Fokker-Planck kinetic solvers with adaptive mesh refinement in phase space (AMPS) and coupling these kinetic solvers to P…
