How (or where) do you find plasma?

Question

I read that it's possible to contain plasma within a magnetic field, but how do you obtain plasma anyway?

Answer 1

Ionize the gas using the radiation or electric discharge. There are many other methods. Make a magnetic bottle and put the neutral air and discharge or ionize it. You will get the plasma.

Answer 2

Light a birthday candle and put it in the microwave, then turn the microwave on...Voila! You made plasma.
