We consider the dynamics of a compressible fluid under the influence of electrostrictive ponderomotive forces in strong inhomogeneous nonstationary electric fields. It is shown that if the fronts of the voltage rise at a sharp, needle-like…
The pilot system development in metre-scale negative laboratory discharges is studied with ns-fast photography. The systems appear as bipolar structures in the vicinity of the negative high-voltage electrode. They appear as a result of a…
In this work we report the results of imaging and spectroscopic measurements of optical emission spectrum of negative nanosecond-pulsed cryogenic discharge in liquid nitrogen. With the application of lower electric fields, the discharge…
We explore the dependence of electrical transport in a graphene field effect transistor (GraFET) on the flow of the liquid within the immediate vicinity of that transistor. We find large and reproducible shifts in the charge neutrality…
This proceedings paper from 2004 contains figures of discharges in different gap lengths at the same potential that are not available elsewhere. The 2004 abstract: The evolution of streamers is known to depend on gas composition and…
We present a computational framework for simulating filamentary electric discharges, in which channels are represented as conducting cylindrical segments. The framework requires a model that predicts the position, radius, and line…
The primitive model of ionic systems is investigated within a field-theoretic description for the whole range of size-, \lambda, and charge, Z, ratios of the two ionic species. Two order parameters (OP) are identified, and their relations…
We study radio emissions from positive streamers in air using 3D simulations, from which the radiated electric field is computed by solving Jefimenko's equations. The simulations are performed at 0.5 bar using two photoionization methods:…
Edge fluid modeling of the first divertor-plasma detachment experiments in negative triangularity discharges on DIII-D is presented using the 2D multi-fluid code UEDGE, including cross-field particle drifts. Density scans are performed to…
The electric field within the streamer channel is a critical parameter in the calculation model for the nonlinear breakdown voltage of SF6, motivating the research presented in this paper. By using a 2D fluid model, we investigate the…
It is by now well understood that large sprite discharges at the low air densities of the mesosphere are physically similar to small streamer discharges in air at standard temperature and pressure. This similarity is based on Townsend…
We recently have proposed that a reduced interfacial model for streamer propagation is able to explain spontaneous branching. Such models require regularization. In the present paper we investigate how transversal Fourier modes of a planar…
Using dynamical density functional theory we calculate the speed of solidification fronts advancing into a quenched two-dimensional model fluid of soft-core particles. We find that solidification fronts can advance via two different…
Streamer discharges play a central role in electric breakdown of matter in pulsed electric fields, both in nature and in technology. Reliable and fast computations of the minimal model for negative streamers in simple gases like nitrogen…
We investigate ionization at a solid-water interface in applied electric field. We attach an electrode to a dielectric film bearing silanol or carboxyl groups with an areal density $\Gamma_0$, where the degree of dissociation $\alpha$ is…
Recent molecular simulation and integral equation results alkali-halide ion pair potentials-of-mean-force in water are discussed. Dielectric model calculations are implemented to check that these models produce that characteristic structure…
We study how external magnetic fields from 0 to 40 T influence positive streamers in atmospheric pressure air, using 3D PIC-MCC (particle-in-cell, Monte Carlo collision) simulations. When a magnetic field $\vec{B}$ is applied perpendicular…
Ionic liquid ion sources are a promising technology that can be used for many applications from space propulsion to focused ion beam microetching. Ionic liquid ion sources produce ion beams by extracting single ions and metastable solvated…
Thomas-Fermi model is applied to describe some basic properties of a negative hydrogen ion in a strong electric field. The equilibrium ionic size, energy and polarizability of the ion are calculated. Collective modes of the dipole…
Focused ion beams are indispensable tools in the semiconductor industry because of their ability to image and modify structures at the nanometer length scale. Here we report on performance predictions of a new type of focused ion beam based…
