Hello fellow Plasmiticians......This is Jonathan Alexander Walkenstein at
the University of Miami Physics Departments Nonlinear Dynamics Laboratory.
Our PI is Dr. William B. Pardo with Dr. Harry S. Robertson as retired but
still active co-PI. We are an experimental facility set up to study a wide
range of nonlinear and chaotic behavior in PLASMAS of all sorts, DC, AC,
RF and Laser excited. Perhaps some of you saw me at either The 2nd
Experimental Chaos Conference or Dynamics Days '94 ( both ONR sponsored
events ) with my plasma demo's? We have been developing some novel
plasma diagnostic tools including hybrid signal processing and data
reduction techniques for high-speed digital video based analysis. Our
group is working closly with Dr. Jerry Magnan at Florida State University,
The Supercomputer Computations Research Institute, when the proceedings
for the 2nd Chaos Conference come out ( World Scientific ) the paper that
our groups worked on ( Dr. Magnan presented "Video Based Analysis of
Bifurcation Phenomena in Radio-Frequency-Excited Inert Gas Plasmas")
can be read by all interested. I may be able to provide soft copy if
you send me some E-MAIL.....anyway I hope this group lives long enough
for me to have time to detail some of the technique that we are developing.

Over and out 4 now
