1. The Klimontovich description of complex plasma systems : Low frequency electrostatic modes, spectral densities of fluctuations and collision integrals
Abstract : Plasmas seeded with solid particulates of nanometer to micron sizes (complex plasma systems) are a ubiquitous feature of intergalactic, interstellar and planetary environments but also of plasma processing applications or even fusion devices. Their novel aspects compared with ideal multi-component plasmas stem from (i) the large number of elementary charges residing on the grain surface, (ii) the variability of the charge over mass ratio of the dust component, (iii) the inherent openness and dissipative nature of such systems.

2. Bridge functions in strongly coupled plasmas : theory, simulations and applications
Abstract : Strongly coupled or non-ideal plasmas are multi-component charged systems in which at least one species possesses an average interaction energy that is comparable or larger than its thermal energy. Non-ideal plasmas are naturally occurring in dense astrophysical objects (e.g. giant planet interiors) but also engineered in the laboratory (e. READ MORE

3. Modelling of macroscopic melt motion in fusion devices
Abstract : Magnetic confinement fusion is one of the most well developed methods envisioned to achieve thermonuclear fusion energy in the future. A central obstacle that remains in the way of safe and sustainable reactor operation is the interaction that occurs between the plasma and vessel wall components. READ MORE
