About

Vasco Guerra is an Associate Professor at Instituto Superior Técnico, Universidade de Lisboa. His research primarily focuses on plasma physics, specifically in areas such as atomic oxygen loss in glow discharges, energy transfer mechanisms in microwave air plasma, and low-pressure CO2 plasma chemistry. He has authored several recent articles addressing the modeling of nanosecond discharges and the kinetics of plasmas, including studies on the interactions in CO2/CH4 glow discharge plasma. Based in Portugal, he continues to contribute significantly to the field through both experimental and theoretical work.
