How to make plasma work.

Alright well, going off of what ShadowXIX said. It is hard to contain the plasma after it leaves the gun because the gas will expand in all directions. I was sitting in astronomy today and we were watching a video over the planets and I had the idea that what if there was a way to model the plasma gun after the planets. First have a iron core and spin the core until it gains a magnetic field (gravity) and either charge the particles of the gas to postive or negative ions. Next, take the gas and and reverse the charge and therefor it will attract to the opposite charge of the iron core. I would go with the magnetic field thing before I tried to spin the iron core fast enough to develop a pull of gravity (or however you make gravity I'm not to sure).
