The polar wind or plasma fountain is a permanent outflow of plasma from the polar regions of Earth's magnetosphere, caused by the interaction between...

aurora, and measured the entry of plasma into the polar magnetosphere and the geomagnetic tail, the flow of plasma to and from the ionosphere, and the...

Plasma (from Ancient Greek πλάσμα (plásma) 'moldable substance') is one of four fundamental states of matter (the other three being solid, liquid, and...

disturbances alter the trajectories of charged particles in the magnetospheric plasma. These particles, mainly electrons and protons, precipitate into the upper...

observed Ganymedian polar aurorae. Charged particles have a considerable influence on the surface properties of Galilean moons. Plasma originating from Io...

Donald Gurnett. Plasma wave instruments are commonly employed on space probes such as GEOTAIL, Polar, Voyager I and II (see Plasma Wave Subsystem), and...

evenly distributed, the PIN proteins normally maintain polar (i.e. asymmetric) localisation on the plasma membrane. That is to say they are most concentrated...

affecting bulk properties. Plasma Cleaning is used to alter material surface chemistries through the introduction of polar functional groups. Increased...

The cell membrane (also known as the plasma membrane or cytoplasmic membrane, and historically referred to as the plasmalemma) is a biological membrane...

staying in the plasma than that of a drug that is widely distributed in tissues. In rough terms, drugs with a high lipid solubility (non-polar drugs), low...

particles. Characterization in human plasma Lipoproteins are complex particles that have a central hydrophobic core of non-polar lipids, primarily cholesteryl...

"pulsed bi-polar" operation) where the stainless steel counter electrode might just be earthed. One of the remarkable features of plasma electrolyte...

increased energy into the magnetosphere. Both interactions cause an increase in plasma movement through the magnetosphere (driven by increased electric fields...

ejection (CME) is a significant ejection of magnetic field and accompanying plasma mass from the Sun's corona into the heliosphere. CMEs are often associated...

called the cylindrical or longitudinal axis, to differentiate it from the polar axis, which is the ray that lies in the reference plane, starting at the...

is a huge, funnel-like, spiral geomagnetic storm that occurs above the polar Ionosphere of Earth, during extremely quiet conditions. They are related...

layer of a star's atmosphere. It is a hot but relatively dim region of plasma populated by intermittent coronal structures known as solar prominences...

This is a list of physicists who have worked in or made notable contributions to the field of plasma physics. Whistler (radio) waves Langmuir waves...

lines can be significantly distorted by the flow of electrically conducting plasma, as emitted from the Sun (i.e., the solar wind) or a nearby star. Planets...

Plasma activation (or plasma functionalization) is a method of surface modification employing plasma processing, which improves surface adhesion properties...
