plasmoid

The latter also creates a plasmoid which moves down the tail.

A plasmoid is a coherent structure of plasma and magnetic fields.

The cage of current and magnetic field entrapped plasma is called a plasmoid.

In a field-free vacuum, for example, a plasmoid will rapidly expand and dissipate.

At 100 million degrees continuous fusion went on within the plasmoid, releasing energy on a solar scale.

We were moving again and I was sorting through some things and I came across that plasmoid.

Thus the lifetime of a plasmoid is expected to be on the order of the acoustic (or Alfvén) transit time.

In this well-known case, the cyclotron radiation is trapped inside the plasmoid and cannot escape, except from a very thin surface layer.

The acceleration of the electrons about the magnetic field lines heats the nuclei within the plasmoid to fusion temperatures.

Generating plasmoid in household microwave oven.

A plasmoid has an internal pressure stemming from both the gas pressure of the plasma and the magnetic pressure of the field.

Many new Plasmoids have been added, including the openDesktop.org Plasmoid - an initial take on the Social Desktop.

Conversely, in Jupiter's magnetosphere the rotational energy is stored in the magnetodisk and released when a plasmoid separates from it.

An early realisation of the social desktop concept was already implemented as a plasmoid (a desktop widget) for the KDE desktop.

It was a plasma of raw electrons and deuterons, and the plasma had been shaped into a pencil-thin tubular plasmoid by magnetic fields which the Pyramids emitted.

The cordon was then a pentagon; reliefs for feeding had become very frequent as the Pyramids steadily drained their energy out in maintaining the colossal magnetic field needed to hold the plasmoid.

In a crystal capsule on the main table was a Venusian zoological specimen, a purplish plasmoid that tirelessly sent forth its amoebalike projections in a passable imitation of life.

In one burst of love, farewell and pain it transmitted through to Tropile the image of the searing blue fine of plasmoid, the nutrient tank boiling dry, boiling them with it.

The plasma focus is similar to the high-intensity plasma gun device (HIPGD) (or just plasma gun), which ejects plasma in the form of a plasmoid, without pinching it.

Sakharov then tested a MK-driven "plasma cannon" where a small aluminium ring was vaporized by huge eddy currents into a stable, self-confined toroidal plasmoid and was accelerated to 100 km/s.

'But we will make our own enquiries' 'Of course' Grice wiped his face with the sleeve of his robe, quivering like a plasmoid, and failing to recover a shred of dignity.

Kubuntu ships with KDE 4.2.2 and includes some improvements like the new KDE NetworkManager plasmoid, and several new programs, such as the Quassel IRC client.

Eventually the robots became bored and evolved themselves through continued upgrades and modifications until they created what is known as a plasmoid being: an android that was a biomechanical equivalent of a true human in almost every aspect.

After armature formation, the plasmoid is then accelerated down the length of the railgun by a current pulse driven through one electrode, through the armature, and out the other electrode, creating a large magnetic field behind the armature.

I would really like to see the GNOME developers add something similar to KDE's nice Folderview plasmoid so that files in various directories can be easily accessed through the desktop without having to have more file manager windows open.
