Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
In recent decades, plasmas have gained prominence in different areas of physics and other related sciences, and they now have diverse applications in areas such as industrial cleaning, surface treatment and modification, medical surgery, and food analysis. Going hand-in-hand with plasmas, lasers have played a key role in plasma physics, acting either as a characterization tool or as the element that generates interaction with the plasma.
The versatility of plasmas and lasers has given rise to many interactions between them. Thus, with the aim of learning about the latest developments and the most advanced discoveries, we launch this Special Issue.
This issue intends to serve as a compilation of the latest developments in the field of laser plasma spectroscopy applications, covering all types of plasmas, gases, and spectroscopic applications, to serve as a reference point for further work.

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Plasma is an international peer-reviewed open access quarterly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 1400 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
