Abstract

Aware of the large number of insights which may result from a better understanding of non-neutral plasmas, the Brigham Young University plasma group currently explores the electrostatic normal modes of oscillation in confined plasmas. Researchers at BYU currently perform computational studies of waves In non-neutral plasmas confined in real geometries in support of experiments both here and elsewhere.
