A plasma is a general turm relating to the formation of a stream of moving
ions. Usualy involves a vacuum or high temprature and/or high voltage. The
temprature can approch that of the surface of the sun, but can be cold. The
few common caricturistics are moving and ions. The ions may be simple outer
band electron movement or atoms stripped of all electrons around the atoms.
The charge may be - with only electrons or + with only core neucli or a
combination like found in the metal film sputtering processes.
