TL;DR: Low temperature, high pressure, non-equilibrium plAsmas are now routinely used in several material processing applications, and in some cases are competing with low pressure plasmas in areas where these have historically been dominant.

TL;DR: In this paper, the most important mechanisms of generation and transport of the key species in the plasmas of atmospheric-pressure plasma jets and other non-equilibrium atmospheric pressure plasms are introduced and examined from the viewpoint of their applications in plasma hygiene and medicine and other relevant fields.

TL;DR: In this paper, emission spectroscopy and gas detection are used to evaluate important plasma inactivation factors such as UV radiation and reactive species, and it is shown that for non-equilibrium, atmospheric pressure air plasmas, it is the oxygen-based and nitrogen-based reactive species that play the most important role in the inactivation process.

TL;DR: A review of various works on the germicidal effects of atmospheric pressure, "cold" plasmas, is presented in this article, where nonequilibrium discharge devices discussed in this review, which have been used in biological applications by various investigators, are the corona discharge, diffuse dielectric-barrier discharge, resistive barrier discharge, and the atmospheric-pressure plasma jet.

TL;DR: In this article, the development of APNP-J is reviewed and a discussion on the interaction between plasma jets is presented. And the most interesting phenomena of the plasma bullet is discussed and its behavior described.
