This substance contains a several Debye lengths layer known as the Debye sheath. The temperature of one part of this substance can be measured using a Langmuir probe, and the transfer of energy between particles and the wave results in Landau damping. A traveling oscillation that propagates in the direction of the magnetic field, known as an Alfven wave, can be found in this substance, which is confined by a magnetic field in a donut-shaped tube called a tokamak. Present in a fluorescent light bulb, it is also located in fusion reactors and the interior of the sun. For 10 points, name this ionized gas that is often called the fourth state of matter.
