M. Sanduloviciu et al., SELF-ORGANIZATION PHENOMENA IN CURRENT-CARRYING PLASMAS RELATED TO THE NONLINEARITY OF THE CURRENT VERSUS VOLTAGE CHARACTERISTIC, Physics letters. A, 208(1-2), 1995, pp. 136-142
The non-linearity of the current versus voltage characteristic of a ga
seous conductor (plasma) is related to the spontaneous formation and d
isruption of self-consistent coherent macroscopic space charge structu
res, whose generation is explained in the frame of a new physical self
-organization scenario.
