TLDR
In this article, a classification about the causality of the phenomena is attempted; the rf field gradient electron drift is proved to be the initial cause, and the electron-neutral collision frequency effect on the other plasma parameters and quantities.Abstract:
Abstract Many experimental data along with their theoretical interpretations on the rf low-temperature cylindrical plasma have been issued until today. Our Laboratory has contributed to that research by publishing results and interpretative mathematical models. With the present paper, two issues are being examined; firstly, the estimation of electron drift caused by the rf field gradient, which is the initial reason for the plasma behaviour, and secondly, many new experimental results, especially the electron-neutral collision frequency effect on the other plasma parameters and quantities. Up till now, only the plasma steady state was taken into consideration when a theoretical elaboration was carried out, regardless of the cause and the effect. This indicates the plasma's complicated and chaotic configuration and the need to simplify the problem. In the present work, a classification about the causality of the phenomena is attempted; the rf field gradient electron drift is proved to be the initial cause.read more

An Attempt to Study on the Growth and Damping Rates with Approximate Solutions by Using Mathematical Models
TL;DR: In this article, the authors studied the effect of the growth rate on the damping on the extinguishment of a plasma wave. And they used the use of suitable approach models, which may interpret the experimental wavy quantities, is the central idea of the present attempt.

Approximate models for the study of exponential changed quantities: Application on the plasma waves growth rate or damping
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors proposed mathematical exponential models that could relate with the study and understanding of the plasmatic wavy instability behavior, which are already detected, understood and presented in previous publications of our laboratory.
