Linking plasma formation in grapes to microwave resonances of aqueous dimers

A nice video explainer involving the authors of this paper: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wCrtk-pyP0I

Eli5 please. Does this means that there's a chance to advance plasma containment based on microwaving grapes?

So if the plasma is actually generated at specific points of concentration dictated by the geometry of the resonator, and is dynamically synched to the microwave field, could this not be synched with a magnetic bottle to create (a) stable oscillating contained plasma volume(s)?

(After tuning the physical geometry)

Sure, I think.

Look at Movie_S04 (MP4).[0] After ~0:56, the plasma is apparently no longer linked to the grapes.

One of the key insights is the index of refraction in the grape. When I was trying to explain it, I always couldn't get over that order of magnitude problem.
