1st meeting with Prof J. Bradley (04.12.2012)

Initially our projects was Effective circuit model of a capacitively coupled plasma discharge. On the meeting prof Bradley suggested another project instead which was One atmosphere uniform glow discharge plasma. We are to research this type of plasma in order to give a better understanding of the OAUGDP and also contribute to prof. Bradley's current work on plasma.

Project specifications:

• design and simulate an equivalent circuit for the glow discharge on PSpice
• investigate the voltage and current memory effects
• voltage breakdown effects with Zener diodes 
• general information about the OAUGDP

Prof. Bradley also gave us guidance on the required literature. We have to find and extract information of the scientific journals of F. Massines and Zhiyu Chen who were working on this specific type of plasma, and any relevant books or articles on the OAUGDP.
