Pre-ionization studies on the modular theta-pinch experiment for field-reversed configuration applications
… be used to aid in design of inductively-coupled pre-ionization systems. The model is further found to be capable of quantifying the efficacy of seed ionization in inductively-coupled systems. Comparisons are made between the standard ringing-theta and a new field-aligned dipole pre-ionization …

Non-thermal plasmas in flames and other inhomogeneous environments
… to gradients in temperature, composition and pre-ionization, which impact the electrical breakdown characteristics and the energy coupling to the flame and its flow field. In this dissertation, the impact of such inhomogeneities in the breakdown modes of repetitive pulsed nanosecond …

Multi-scale modeling of laser induced breakdown in non-equilibrium plasmas
… under different ambient conditions (e.g., pressure), laser parameters (e.g., power density and beam wavelength), mode-beating temporal pulse histories (e.g., single-mode and multi-mode nano-second discharges), and pulse con figurations (e.g., single-pulse and dual-pulse nano-second …
