IMPACT Dusty Plasma Labs

Dusty Plasma Laboratory (DPL)

In addition to DAL, IMPACT hosts a variety of vacuum chambers to aide in experimental plasma studies. DPL houses a smaller chamber, 51 cm in diameter and 28 cm tall, used for investigations of dusty plasma phenomena as well as a larger chamber (known as "KEG"), 60 cm in diameter and 80 cm tall, used for investigations of photoelectron sheaths and magnetic anomalies.
