The Impact Factor measures the average number of citations received in a particular year by papers published in the journal during the two preceding years. 2017 Journal Citation Reports (Clarivate Analytics, 2018) IF: 0.4 The Immediacy Index is the average number of times an article is cited in the year it is published. The journal Immediacy Index indicates how quickly articles in a journal are cited. Immediacy Index: 0.1 The Eigenfactor score, developed by Jevin West and Carl Bergstrom at the University of Washington, is a rating of the total importance of a scientific journal. Journals are rated according to the number of incoming citations, with citations from highly ranked journals weighted to make a larger contribution to the eigenfactor than those from poorly ranked journals. Eigenfactor: 0.00005 The Journal Citation Indicator (JCI) is a single measurement of the field-normalized citation impact of journals in the Web of Science Core Collection across disciplines. The key words here are that the metric is normalized and cross-disciplinary. JCI: 0.07 SJR: 0.198 SNIP: 0.48 CiteScore™:: 1.1 H-Index: 20

ABSTRACT

Historically, surface wave sustained microwave plasmas were almost exclusively generated and investigated in a standard configuration of an elongated cylinder. One of the new configurations, proposed more recently, is Duo-plasmaline [1]. There, the plasma is located outside a cylindrical dielectric vessel, adjacent to its wall, and forms a structure of a ring shaped cross-section. An axially located cylindrical conductor corresponds to the outer metallic cylinder surrounding plasma in the standard configuration.
We report results of a numerical analysis of wave propagation in such annular structures in a wide range of plasma parameters. We show that two different waves may propagate, each related to one of the two boundary surfaces of the plasma. The waves can be clearly distinguished in the domain of large electron densities. Presented are calculated complex propagation coefficients of waves and radial distributions of the electromagnetic field. Asymptotic cases are defined and analyzed.
