Numerical simulation of the development of ionization waves—streamers—in pure argon at atmospheric pressure in a plane-parallel gap has been performed. The velocities and plasma parameters of cathode- ...

If future Mars colonizers want to survive without pressure suits, they’ll need to generate a denser atmosphere. One way to achieve this could be to bombard the Red Planet with water-rich asteroids.

All the latest science news on atmospheric pressure from Phys.org. Find the latest news, advancements, and breakthroughs.

Yuba Water Agency has been partnering with the Center for Western Weather and Water Extremes for the last five years. They’ve been researching atmospheric rivers to improve forecasts while ...

Barometric pressure is the amount of pressure the air is pushing onto your body. Changes in barometric pressure can cause headaches or pain.

Winds rush toward the low-pressure center, generating fierce gusts, while the rapidly ascending air cools and condenses, producing intense rain or snow. What Is an Atmospheric River?

Today, the Waliguan Global Atmospheric Background Station can conduct all-weather, high-density, accurate observations of a total of more than 60 observation elements across 30 observation ...

The occurrence and application scenarios of corona discharge are diverse, and most of them occur in scenarios where the background gas is air. The influence of different air relative humidity on the ...

A 2019 review took an in-depth look at barometric pressure headaches, and cited a number of studies showing an association between decreased pressure and headache or migraine symptoms.

Lab-grown diamonds can form at atmospheric pressure in a liquid of gallium, iron, nickel and silicon.

Atmospheric rivers are long and relatively narrow bands of water vapor that form over an ocean and flow through the sky, transporting much of the moisture from the tropics to northern latitudes.

New research shows that atmospheric pressure fluctuations that pull gases up from underground could be responsible for releasing subsurface methane into Mars' atmosphere; knowing when and where to ...
