Special Issue “Vacuum Gas Dynamics”

The edition of the Special Issue ‘Vacuum Gas Dynamics: Theory, experiments and practical applications’ in VACUUM has been completed. We have received a very good response to this initiative. After a rigorous peer-review process, 18 articles were selected for publication. Most of them can already be seem on-line:
