Thomson and Collisional Regimes of In-Phase Coherent Microwave Scattering Off Gaseous Microplasmas

Adam R. Patel, Apoorv Ranjan, Xingxing Wang +3

The total number of electrons in a classical microplasma can be non-intrusively measured through elastic in-phase coherent microwave scattering (CMS). Here, we establish a theoreti…
