Aims & Scope

Plasma [ISSN 2571-6182] provides an advanced forum for studies related to all aspects of plasma science, such as plasma physics, plasma chemistry and space plasma.

It publishes reviews, research articles and short communications as well as Special Issues on particular subjects.

The aim of Plasma is to encourage scientists to publish their experimental and theoretical results in as much detail as possible.

Therefore, the journal has no restriction on the maximum length of the papers.

Full experimental details should be provided so that the results can be reproduced.

The editorial policy is to maintain the highest quality of published papers via a strict peer review process.

The editorial board, reviewers and the publishing team are committed to providing the authors with a fast and professional response to ensure rapid publication of the papers.

Scope: • atmospheric-pressure plasma • electron, ion and plasma sources • dusty plasma • low-temperature plasma and its applications • plasma diagnostics • electric discharges in gases, liquids and solids • plasma dynamics • plasma electrical properties • plasma theory and modelling • plasma–surface interaction • low-pressure plasma
