Research focus
The research team at the Department of Pulse Plasma Systems investigates non-equilibrium plasma generated by various types of pulsed high-voltage electrical discharges in gases, liquids, and gas-liquid interfaces. The fundamental physical and chemical processes accompanying these discharges are studied under different conditions and varying pulsed power levels. The team also explores the application of discharge plasma-induced effects in diverse fields, including biology, medicine, environmental science, and agriculture. Key research areas include plasma physics, plasma chemistry, and biological effects of atmospheric discharges in gases and liquids. The team has extensive expertise in diagnosing fast transient phenomena in electrical discharge plasma in gases and liquids, complemented by advanced numerical modeling. Their research also covers shock wave generation and the chemistry of plasma-liquid interaction induced by electrical discharge plasmas in contact with liquids.
