SOME ANALOGIES BETWEEN PLASMA AND BIOLOGY
( Pp. 91-107)

This work is thanks to the order generation of plasma scientists from NRC «Kurchatov Institute», both living and gone. Some of them, hand in hand with successful work in the field of plasma physics, also engaged in the analysis of biological phenomena (A.A. Vedenov, B.A. Trubnikov, B.B. Kadomtsev). In addition, there are direct analogies between plasma physics and biology (similar dependencies, similar methods of problems solving…). Such parallels are formed the basis of publication.Here are some of them touched in the article:monotonous dependencies with a plateau. In general physics and plasma physics such dependencies usually indicate a phase transition or a topology change. Explanation biological example of such dependency that is related to the geometrical parameters of trees, more complex and determined by different limitations for small, medium and tall trees, and temporal evolution;universal distributions, such as Pareto’s law or 80 : 20 principle (mass distribution of celestial bodies or parts of volcanic aches, power distribution of number of earthquakes etc.). To follow such analogies in biology for renewable covers leads to the conclusion that the main part of energy from the food is spent on renewal short-lived cells in organism;presence of minimum size (if size is lower, than there is complex structure, for higher sizes - there is no structure). Samples are Debye radius in plasma physics and cell size in biology;formation of blisters and whiskers during plasma-wall interaction and botanical analogies;scaling, invariants, fractals;limits of heat removal in plasma devices and in biology.
