Presented herein are measurements of the solar wind electron number density and temperature near and within the bow shock of Venus. The measurements were made by the Pioneer Venus mission Orbiter Retarding Potential Analyzer operating in its suprathe

Fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance mass spectrometry (FTICR-MS) is often limited by space-charge effects. Previously, particle-in-cell (PIC) simulations have been used to understand these effects on FTICR-MS signals. However, none have extende

The nonlinear interaction of the two lowest Trivelpiece–Gould modes in a non-neutral plasma has been observed. Because of coupling in the nonlinear terms of the continuity and momentum equations, the two modes can exchange energy and convert one to

We have been continuing our study of solitons and nonlinear interactions in a pure electron plasma. The solitons are grown from large amplitude normal-mode oscillations. When grown in this way, it is convenient to divide the resulting wave into two p

A simple, non-destructive diagnostic for the temperature of a non-neutral plasma is desirable as plasma lifetimes increase and the confined species become more exotic. If the confinement system includes an isolated wall sector, the motion of the char

7Be is an isotope of beryllium that decays by electron capture to 7Li. Because the energy of decay is too small for electron-positron production, electrons must be present for 7Be to decay. It is possible to modify the rate of decay by changing the e

We have been making measurements of nonlinear effects that occur in the normal modes of electrostatic waves in a pure electron plasma. The two effects described here are (1) mode coupling between normal modes and (2) formation of solitons from the no

Level populations and line intensities are calculated for a pure Ne‐like argon plasma showing their dependence on plasma parameters (electron temperature, density, plasma column diameter, electron energy distribution, etc.). It is shown that intens

A simplified vacuum arc design [based on metal vapor vacuum arc (MeVVA) concepts] is employed as a plasma source for a study of a (7)Be non-neutral plasma. The design includes a mechanism for interchanging the cathode source. Testing of the plasma so

In 1992, Eggleston et al. [D. L. Eggleston et al., Phys. Fluids B 4, 3432 (1992)] reported on a technique for measuring the radial temperature profile in a pure-electron plasma confined in a Malmberg-Penning trap by partially dumping the plasma onto
