Application of Gas Lasers in Measuring Electron Concentrations in Plasma,

Abstract

The report discusses the following specific methods of plasma diagnostics by lasers with reference to measuring electron concentration with helium-neon lasers: Methods based on the Faraday effect - here gas lasers are mainly used because of the possibility of generating in the distant infrared (measuring the electron concentration or magnetic induction), and The interferometric methods - here gas lasers are used because of the very good light consistency (measuring the electron concentrations).
