2. WHAT IS A PLASMA Langmuir in 1928 is the first one introduced the word “plasma”. Ionization degree described the state of the plasma.
3. It’s a singular form of matter which contains ions most of the matter around us consists of neutral atoms and equal number of electrons and protons, so their charge is balanced on Plasma.Detailed explanation of the relationship between solid, liquid and gas arrive to plasma.First and foremost, a plasma is an ionized gas. When a solid is heated sufficiently that the thermal motion of the atoms break the crystal lattice structure , usually a liquid is formed. When a liquid is heated enough that atoms vaporize of the surface faster, a gas is formed. When a gas is heated enough that the atoms collide with each other and knock their electrons in the process, a plasma is formed: the so-called `fourth state of matter'.

5. Forces in the plasmaIn most materials the dynamics of motion are determined by forces between near-neighbor regions of the material. In a plasma, charge separation between ions and electrons gives rise to electric fields, and charged-particle flows give rise to currents and magnetic fields. Plasma:- is a quasi-neutral contain charged and neutral particles that exhibits a (collective behavior).Quasi-neutrality: number densities of electrons, ne, and ions,ni , with charge state Z are locally balanced:Collective behavior: The motion that dependents not only local conditions but on the state of the plasma in remote region

7. Three fundamental parameters characterize plasma:1. The particle density n (measured in particles per cubic meter),2. The temperature T of each species (usually measured in eV, where 1 eV=11 605 K),3. The steady-state magnetic field B (measured in Tesla)

9. Thermal plasma exist in,•Low-energy plasma: This weakly ionized plasma can exist only at very low pressure in closed containers–Examples include fluorescent lamps, neon signs, plasma globes, plasma TVs–They easily form at room temperature, so they cool enough to touch.•Medium-energy plasma: Partially ionized plasma is much hotter, so it can exist even at normal air pressure–Examples include fireworks, the surface of the Sun, metal cutting “plasma” torches –Their temperature is around ten thousand degrees.•High-energy plasma: Super-mega hot (many millions of degrees) and fully ionized–Very hard to create here on Earth, but it exists at the Sun’s core–Earthly examples include exploding bridge wires, particle accelerators, and nuclear explosions–At these pressures and temperatures, hydrogen nuclei can fuse, releasing a lot of energy plasma.
