Plasma medicine Plasma medicine Plasma medicine is an emerging field that combines plasma physics, life sciences and clinical medicine. It is being studied in disinfection, healing, and cancer. Most of the research is in vitro and in animal models. It uses ionized gas (physical plasma) for medical uses or dental applications . Plasma, often called the fourth state of matter, is an ionized gas containing positive ions and negative ions or electrons, but is approximately charge neutral on the whole. The plasma sources used for plasma medicine are generally low temperature plasmas, and they generate ions, chemically reactive atoms and molecules, and
Negative base For example, the numbers from 100 to 109 have the same representations in decimal and negadecimal. Similarly, and is represented by 10001 in binary and 10001 in negabinary. Some numbers with their expansions in a number of positive and corresponding negative bases are: Note that the base expansions of negative integers have an even number of digits, while the base expansions of the non-negative integers have an odd number of digits. The base expansion of a number can be found by repeated division by , recording the non-negative remainders of formula_3, and concatenating those remainders, starting with the last. Note
