Description
H05H covers plasma generation and manipulation techniques, along with systems for producing and accelerating charged particles (ions, electrons), neutrons, and neutral atomic/molecular beams. This includes plasma confinement methods, ion sources, particle accelerators, and beam production apparatus used in fusion research, materials processing, medical applications, and scientific instrumentation. The classification encompasses both the technical apparatus and operational methods for generating, controlling, and directing high-energy particle streams, excluding applications already covered by specialized accelerator classes (such as H05C) or general electrical discharge phenomena classified elsewhere.
