A comment on Plasma generation by household microwave oven. Parent comment
The use of plasma in industrial processing has enabled a lot of computer technology. It’s been well studied for nearly 100 years.
I work at a machine that makes plasma from a giant microwave (though we call them gyrotrons instead of magnetrons when they pull 50 kW).
