A plasma gun for forming a plasma stream in the open magnetic mirror trap with additional helicoidal field SMOLA is described. The plasma gun is an axisymmetric system with a planar circular hot cathode based on lanthanum hexaboride and a hollow copper anode. The two planar coils are located around the plasma source and create a magnetic field of up to 200 mT. The magnetic field forms the magnetron configuration of the discharge and provides a radial electric insulation. The source typically operates with a discharge current of up to 350 A in hydrogen. Plasma parameters in the SMOLA device are Ti ~ 5 eV, Te ~ 5–40 eV and ni ~ (0.1–1)  × 1019 m−3. Helium plasma can also be created. The plasma properties depend on the whole group of initial technical parameters: the cathode temperature, the feeding gas flow, the anode-cathode supply voltage and the magnitude of the cathode magnetic insulation.

One of the main oscillatory modes found ubiquitously in Hall thrusters is the so-called breathing mode. This is recognized as a relatively low-frequency (10–30 kHz), longitudinal oscillation of the discharge current and plasma parameters. In this paper, we present a synergic experimental and numerical investigation of the breathing mode in a 5 kW-class Hall thruster. To this aim, we propose the use of an informed 1D fully-fluid model to provide augmented data with respect to available experimental measurements. The experimental data consists of two datasets, i.e., the discharge current signal and the local near-plume plasma properties measured at high-frequency with a fast-diving triple Langmuir probe. The model is calibrated on the discharge current signal and its accuracy is assessed by comparing predictions against the available measurements of the near-plume plasma properties. It is shown that the model can be calibrated using the discharge current signal, which is easy to measure, and that, once calibrated, it can predict with reasonable accuracy the spatio-temporal distributions of the plasma properties, which would be difficult to measure or estimate otherwise. Finally, we describe how the augmented data obtained through the combination of experiments and calibrated model can provide insight into the breathing mode oscillations and the evolution of plasma properties.

Abstract Plasma contacting with liquid provides many charged particles and reactive species into the liquid. The difficulty in controlling or selecting each specific species has significantly limited its applications in industry. Here, we present a study on using voltage polarity to regulate the type of charged particles absorbing from plasma into liquid. Detailed understanding of the processes at the plasma-liquid interface, electrolysis due to switching in voltage polarity was investigated via a visual pH observation, measuring the concentration of H2O2 and solvated electrons. The results indicated that changing in voltage polarity strongly affects the plasma properties, chemical properties, and electrolysis process in liquid, and further in the types of reducing species for gold nanoparticle synthesis. The results also showed using a suitable frequency could improve the efficiency of absorption of H2O2from plasma into the bulk liquid and the yield in the production of gold nanoparticles. The results provide a way to select desired species from plasma into the liquid for a distinct purpose and accompanying other properties in the system of plasma contacting with liquid.
