on line measurement of oxygen
... Oxygen is vitally important to the existence of animal life, not only for respiration, but also for the many aspects of the combustion reaction (power generation, vehicular movement, heating) and process control, safety and quality. Continuous measurement techniques are correspondingly important and ...

White Dwarfs - Chandra X
... In the white dwarf state, all the material contained in the star, minus the amount blown off in the red giant phase, will be packed into a volume one millionth the size of the original star. An object the size of an olive made of this material would have the same mass as an automobile! For a billio ...

Microplasmas are plasmas of small dimensions, ranging from tens to thousands of micrometers. They can be generated at a variety of temperatures and pressures, existing as either thermal or non-thermal plasmas. Non-thermal microplasmas that can maintain their state at standard temperatures and pressures are readily available and accessible to scientists as they can be easily sustained and manipulated under standard conditions. Therefore, they can be employed for commercial, industrial, and medical applications, giving rise to the evolving field of microplasmas.
