Front Cover: The atmospheric pressure argon plasma jet penetrates inside tubes of small inner diameter. A better propagation is observed when the tube size is close to the plasma jet cross‐section. Short plasma treatment times change the inner tube surface from hydrophobic to hydrophilic. Both exposure time and tube size are the most important parameters to obtain an efficient treatment. Further details can be found in the article by Iuliia Onyshchenko et. al. on page 271 .
