Numerical investigation of characteristics of current flow for different methods of obtaining discharge in high speed lasers. Mechanism underlying current flow in positive glow discharge column
Technical Report
·
OSTI ID:6211948
Positive glow discharge columns are examined for different methods of obtaining discharge from the viewpoint of the model of a nonstationary plasma. The roles of detachment and the heterogeneity factor are investigated in various experiments to study elementary discharge processes. Experimental data are interpreted from this viewpoint as well. The study includes steady state, self-maintained, and semi-self-maintained alternating current, as well as discharge in a decaying plasma. The mechanism underlying the current flow cannot be described unless allowance is made for heterogeneities in the plasma in the direction in which the current is moving.
