A 3-dimensional kinetic transport and reaction model of atmospheric pressure plasma jets (A08)

• Subject Area: Optics, Quantum Optics and Physics of Atoms, Molecules and Plasmas
• Term: since 2018
• Project identifier: Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG) - Project number 327886311

In this project, a 3-dimensional kinetic transport and reaction model is (further) developed, which describes reactive species in the effluent of an atmospheric pressure plasma jet on their way towards the liquid. In particular, ionization waves and their effects on particle transport are taken into account.
