[1] Dynamics of lightning channel corona sheath surrounding thin channel core is examined on the basis of three transmission-line-type models of the return stroke that specify different attenuation of longitudinal current with height. The corona sheath conductivity is estimated using measured radial electric field in the immediate vicinity of the lightning channel and measured channel base curr...

Plasma in the Sun's hot corona expands into the heliosphere as a supersonic and highly magnetized solar wind. This paper provides an overview of our current understanding of how the corona is heated and how the solar wind is accelerated. Recent models of magnetohydrodynamic turbulence have progressed to the point of successfully predicting many observed properties of this complex, multi-scale s...

abstract in this work, the dry reforming of methane was studied using a corona and glow discharge plasma microreactors. a chemical kinetic model was developed to understand the reaction better. the modelization allowed prediction of the reactants conversion according to the energy transfer to the gas (p×τ). the β value is trait of the energy cost, whatever this value was leeser indicated better...

The corona algebra M(A)/A contains essential information on the global structure of A, as demonstrated for instance by Busby theory. It is an interesting and surprisingly difficult task to determine the ideal structure of M(A)/A by means of the internal structure of A. Toward this end, we generalize Freudenthal’s classical theory of ends of topological spaces to a large class of C∗-algebras. Ho...

Comprehensive study of the impulse corona characteristics is helpful to understand the transient process and guarantee a suitable insulation design of power transmission systems. In this paper, first the attenuation and deformation characteristics of lightning overvoltage traveling along a 500 kV experimental transmission line are tested. Then the lightning impulse corona characteristics on dif...
