TL;DR: In this paper, a transdisciplinary understanding of the significance of the night, and its loss, for humans and the natural systems upon which we depend, is presented, with a strong focus on energy efficiency and greenhouse gas emissions.

TL;DR: A review of the theoretical and experimental studies on the spatial formation and temporal evolution of metastable and resonance atoms in weakly ionized low-temperature plasmas is presented in this paper.

TL;DR: The potential of plasma technologies is discussed in this paper, where economic trends are anticipated together with research needs, and the community of plasma scientists strongly believes that more exciting advances will continue to foster innovations and discoveries in the first decades of the 21st century, if research and education will be properly funded and sustained by public bodies and industrial investors.

TL;DR: In this paper, a two-temperature chemically non-equilibrium model describing in a selfconsistent manner the heat transfer, the plasma chemistry, the electric and magnetic field in a high-current free-burning arc in argon has been developed.
