Look up: Plasma

  1. Plasma
    A physical state of matter which exists at extremely high temperatures in which all molecules are dissociated and most atoms are ionized.
    Found on http://home.nas.net/~dbc/cic_hamilton/di

  2. plasma
    A low-density gas in which the individual atoms are charged, even though the total number of positive and negative charges is equal, maintaining an overall electrical neutrality.
    Found on http://www.solarviews.com/eng/terms.htm

  3. plasma
    A low-density gas in which the individual atoms are ionized (and therefore charged), even though the total number of positive and negative charges is equal, maintaining an overall electrical neutrality.

  4. Plasma
    Any ionized gas, that is, any gas containing ions and electrons.

  5. Plasma
    Electrically conductive fourth state of matter (other than solid, liquid, or gas), consisting of ions and electrons.

  6. Plasma
    Plasma is the liquid part of the blood.

  7. Plasma
    Plasma consists of a gas heated to sufficiently high temperatures that the atoms ionize. The properties of the gas are controlled by electromagnetic forces among constituent ions and electrons, which results in a different type of behavior. Plasma is often considered the fourth state of matter (besides solid, liquid, and gas). Most of the matter in the Universe is in the plasma state.

  10. Plasma
    the fluid part of blood, containing proteins and salts, from which the blood cells have been removed. see alsoserum.

  11. plasma
    [n] - a green slightly translucent variety of chalcedony used as a gemstone 2. [n] - (physical chemistry) a fourth state of matter distinct from solid or liquid or gas and present in stars and fusion reactors 3. [n] - colorless watery fluid of blood and lymph containing no cells and in which erythrocytes and leukocytes and platelets are suspended

  12. Plasma
    One common description of plasma is to describe it as the fourth state of matter. We normally think of the three states of matter as solid, liquid and gas. For a common element, water, these states are ice, water and steam. The difference between these states relates to their energy levels. When we add energy in the form of heat to ice, the ice melts and forms water. When we add more energy, the water vaporizes into hydrogen and oxygen, in the form of steam. By adding more energy to steam these gases become ionised. This ionisation process causes the gas to become electrically conductive. This electrically conductive, ionised gas is called plasma. The plasma cutting process, as used in the cutting of electrically conductive metals, utilises this electrically conductive gas to transfer energy from an electrical power source through a plasma cutting torch to the material being cut. It is then how the plasma gas is controlled through the torch, which effects the final cut quality you see.

  13. Plasma
    The liquid part of the blood; it contains many kinds of proteins including clotting factors, immunoglobulins and albumin.

  14. Plasma
    The fourth state of matter (along with the other states of matter: solids, liquids and gases) in which one or more electrons have been stripped from the atoms forming an ion gas. Therefore, capable of conducting electric currents. It is estimated that more than 99% of matter in the universe exists as plasma; examples include stars, nebulae, and int…

  17. plasma
    Plasma is a highly ionized gas in which the charge of the electrons is balanced by the charge of the positive ions, so that the system as a whole is electrically neutral. Temperatures of 10 000 °C to 15 000 °C can be reached.

8 January 2009

This day in history:
Rationing began on 8 January 1940. Each person was allowed a specific mount of basic foods. In July 1940 a complete ban was put on the making or selling of iced cakes, and in September the manufacture of `candied peel` or `crystallised cherries` meant the death knell for the traditional wedding cake. On 1st December 1941 the Ministry of Food introduced the points rationing scheme for items such as canned meat, fish and vegetables at first. Everyone was given 16 points a month, later raised to twenty, to spend as wished at any shop that had the items wanted. read more
