Abstract :
Formerly so-called bullet jets have been in the focus of atmospheric pressure plasma jet research of the past years. In this paper, two perspectives of the dynamic phenomenon are presented. Averaged, the dynamics appears as a bright spot-the so-called bullet-traveling from the plasma jet nozzle. In single shot it is revealed that the discharge mode in fact is a streamer-type discharge leaving the jet nozzle into the ambient.
