Magnetic field and electromagnetic wave properties of carbon monoxide with high-pressure disproportionation single-walled carbon nanotubes
A double-fluid theory is used to find the electromagnetic wave absorption of carbon monoxide with iron-catalyzed high-pressure disproportionation (HiPco)-grown single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs). ...

Numerical simulation of high-current vacuum arc characteristics under combined action of axial magnetic field and external magnetic field from bus bar
In this paper, the two-dimensional high-current vacuum arc (HCVA) model under the combined action of axial magnetic field (AMF) and external magnetic field from bus bar (EMFBB) is established. Based o...

The simple optical emission spectroscopy technique for diagnostics of low pressure microwave induced plasma (MIP) in hydrogen or in MIP seeded with hydrogen is described and tested. This technique uses the Boltzmann plot of relative line intensities along Balmer spectral series in conjunction with the criterion for partial local thermodynamic equilibrium for low electron density (Ne) plasma diagnostics. The proposed technique is tested in a low pressure MIP discharge for simultaneous determination of electron density Ne (1017–1018  m−3) and temperature Te. ©2009 American Institute of Physics
