Effects of Working Medium Gases on Emission Spectral and Temperature Characteristics of a Plasma Igniter by Gao Cheng Chen, Li Ming He, Bing Bing Zhao, Hua Lei Zhang, Zi Chen Zhao, Hao Zeng, Jian Ping Lei, Xiong Liu

“…The experimental results show that the emission spectra of the plasma jet had significant differences when diverse working gases were used as the working medium of the igniter. With increasing O2 concentration in the working medium gas, the spectral line intensity of oxygen-containing particles in emission spectra of the plasma jet was significantly enhanced, and the spectral intensities of nitrogen-containing particles, NO molecular bands, the second positive system of N2C3∏u−B3∏g, and the first negative system of N2+B2∑u+−X2∑u+ were also enhanced obviously. …”

All the Faces of Agency in Video Games by Biljana Mitrović

“…Apart from the fact that video games are still a current and wide area of study, the reason for academic interest and the publishing of books in this area is also methodological – video game studies use multidisciplinary interactions between various areas of theory and games while demonstrating how video games fit and influence the existing theoretical and methodological models in the humanities.It is in this context that we have an interesting example: Bettina Bódi’s Videogames and Agency (Routledge, 2023). …”
