Specifically,
that the effect is a result of aqueous dielectric objects displaying morphology-dependent resonances (MDRs) at microwave frequencies. MDRs are synonymous with Mie resonances, which describe the near-field effects of resonant interactions of light with wavelength-scale objects (3, 4). The objects can be conductive or dielectric and absorptive or transparent, depending on the complex dielectric permittivity of the material.

睇曬成篇原文都無提及過total internal reflction
微波爐內部嘅microwaves 都好大機會係omnidirectional, 所以total internal reflection 未必成立
From wiki:
Mie resonances describes the scattering of an electromagnetic plane wave by a homogeneous sphere.
係有resonances
但report 話resonance 係由mie resonances 產生
無理解錯就應該唔係由total internal reflction 去 stack up
關於皮嘅問題:
Apparently a grape's skin has nothing to do with it at all. The authors were able to produce plasma using a simple pair of hydrogel beads as well as gooseberries, large blackberries, and even quail eggs. They concluded that lots of things about the size of a grape with sufficient water content can produce plasma as long as the two objects are less than three millimeters apart.
