SOME CHARACTERISTICS OF A PLASMA PENETRATING BEYOND THE LIMITS OF THE DISCHARGE SPACE,

Abstract

When studying the characteristics of a low-voltage, arc discharge in mercury vapors the phenomenon of the propagation of the plasma beyond the limits of the discharge anode was detected; whereupon, by introducing additional acceleration, the conditions of propagation could be varied. The paper gives the results of a study which make this process and its characteristics more accurate for the use of this phenomenon during the formation of an electron flow in superhigh-frequency instruments with ion focusing.
