41st AIAA Plasmadynamics and Lasers Conference 2010

The 41st AIAA Plasmadynamics and Lasers Conference will address current basic and/or applied research in the areas of plasmadynamics, lasers, electromagnetics, diagnostics, and related topics in nonequilibrium reacting flows. Contributed papers will describe contemporary experimental, analytical, and computational efforts. The program will include many interdisciplinary papers and contributions describing the state-of-the-art development in the areas of plasmadynamics and lasers. Conference sessions will focus on the technical areas of plasma and laser physics, properties, chemistry and kinetics; Space plasma physics and applications, plasma interactions, space laser applications, tethers, and space experiments; plasma materials processing and environmental applications, hazardous material disposal; laser devices and advanced diagnostics; laser optics and fluid-optics interactions; magnetohydrodynamic power, flow control, and modeling; weakly-ionized gas issues; and space plasma propulsion.
