PLASMA SOURCES SCIENCE & TECHNOLOGY

Plasma Sources Science and Technology (PSST) reports on low-temperature plasmas and ionized gases operating over all ranges of gas pressure and plasma density, with varying degrees of ionization. The emphasis of PSST is on the fundamental science of these plasmas, their sources and the physical and chemical processes initiated or sustained by them, as elucidated through theoretical, computational or experimental techniques. PSST also reports on new experimentally or theoretically derived fundamental data (e.g. cross sections, transport coefficients) required for investigation of low temperature plasmas. Reports that relate to the technology and applications of these plasmas should be closely linked to the science and fundamental processes occurring in the plasma state.

等离子体源科学与技术(PSST)报告了低温等离子体和电离气体在各种气体压力和等离子体密度范围内以不同程度的电离作用运行的情况。PSST的重点是这些等离子体的基础科学，它们的来源，以及通过理论、计算或实验技术阐明的由它们引发或维持的物理和化学过程。PSST还报告了研究低温等离子体所需的新的实验或理论推导的基本数据(例如截面、输运系数)。有关这些等离子体的技术和应用的报道应与等离子体状态下发生的科学和基本过程密切相关。
