Abstract :
The control of electromagnetic-plasma interaction may be accomplished through the judicious control of signal frequency, plasma frequency, and collision frequency. Collision frequency control, effected by charged particle seeding, is being investigated as a possible technique to alleviate signal degradation. Since collision frequency is proportional to charge squared, highly charged micron-size particles are very effective.
