Innovative high-speed diagnostics and modeling for RF CFE basic science
Abstract
We propose to investigate the discharge and extraction phenomena for pulsed-transient and time-averaged molecular plasma processes in a well-characterized RF canonical focus experimental (CFE). Unique insights into the science are possible using capabilities we have recently developed and characterized in our lab that employ innovative high-speed and non-intrusive spectroscopic diagnostics coupled with collisional radiative (CR) and multi-physics-multi-fidelity modeling. As part of a CFE community, we are highly motivated to use our capabilities to collaboratively explore the fundamental physics of RF plasma discharges to expand scientific understanding.
