摘要
Plasma Science and Technology(PST)journal assists in advancing plasma science and technology by reporting important,novel,helpful and thought-provoking progress in this strongly multidisciplinary and interdisciplinary field,in a timely manner.This field encompasses foundational plasma phenomena;low-temperature plasmas;magnetically confined plasmas;inertially confined plasmas;astrophysics and space plasmas;and interdisciplinary science of these;and the engineering and technology development and application from them.PST is sponsored jointly by the Institute of Plasma Physics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences,and the Chinese Society of Theoretical and Applied Mechanics.The journal joined the Science Citation Index in 2003,the Engineering Index in 2006,and became published online by IOP Publishing Ltd.in 2006.
