Prof. Ken Hara | Computational Models for Electric Propulsion & Low-temperature Plasma Applications

Plasmas, ionized gases, are found in nature (lightning, the aurora, the ionosphere) and in a vast array of technology devices, such as electric propulsion thrusters, and in manufacturing. These glowing, chemically reactive gases contain charged particles that interact with each other, creating electric fields that jostle the particles back-and-forth.This pull-and-push sometimes produces self-organization, patterns that naturally emerge in the plasma. Describing this complexity requires sophisticated computer models and simulations, which are essential to our understanding how natural (and people made) systems self-organize. In this video, Prof. Ken Hara of Stanford University discusses his theoretical computational descriptions of complex phenomena in low temperature plasmas, leading to self-organization.
