Plasmoid vs plasma: what’s the difference?

Plasma is the material. A plasmoid is a shape that material can take — a self-contained, donut-shaped piece that holds itself together. Knowing the difference makes the rest of the inventor’s material easier to follow.

Plain definition

Plasma

Plasma is gas that carries electric charge (ionized gas) — the stuff of lightning and sparks. On its own it spreads out and does not keep a shape.

Plain definition

Plasmoid

A plasmoid is a bounded piece of plasma that holds its own donut (toroidal) shape inside its own magnetic bottle. That self-containment is the whole difference.

Inventor claim

How Bendall’s material uses the word

In the Plasmoid Unification Model (PUM), plasmoids — also called EVOs — are born when bubbles collapse in water and are treated as the building blocks behind atoms and the device’s claimed energy path.

That larger role is the inventor model. This site teaches it as a coherent study picture, not as settled mainstream science.
