Abstract
Some embodiments include a plasma source. The plasma source includes: (i) a plasma emitter having a first electrode and a second electrode defining an electrode gap therebetween; (ii) stands disposed adjacent to the electrode gap and the plasma emitter; (iii) emitter openings configured such that shockwaves generated by the plasma source are directed through the emitter openings and radially from the plasma emitter, wherein adjacent emitter openings of the emitter openings are separated from each other by at least one stand of the stands; (iv) an enclosure housing at a distal end of the plasma emitter and having a delivery device configured to introduce a conductor through an opening in the second electrode and into the electrode gap; and a device housing at a proximal end of the plasma emitter and having a transformer, a capacitor unit, and a contactor. Other embodiments of related systems and methods are also disclosed.

Abstract
In some embodiments, a plasma source can comprise a plasma emitter comprising a first electrode and a second electrode, the first electrode and the second electrode defining an electrode gap. In some embodiments, the plasma source can further comprise an enclosure housing attached to a distal end of the plasma emitter, the enclosure housing can comprise a delivery device configured to introduce a metal conductor through an axial opening in the second electrode and into the electrode gap and a device housing attached to a proximal end of the plasma emitter, the device housing can comprise a high voltage transformer electrically coupled to a capacitor unit. In some embodiments, the capacitor unit electrically can be coupled to a contactor, and the contactor can be electrically coupled to the first electrode. Other embodiments of related methods and systems are also provided.
