Electronic Circuits during Oscillations of an Anode Double Layer

reportActive / Technical Report | Accession Number: ADP015008 | Open PDF

Abstract:

A so-called fireball is formed in front of a positively biased planar electrode anode inserted into a diffusive plasma produced by a multipolar confinement system. We have investigated the entire electronic circuit, through which the current is flowing during the nonlinear oscillations of the fireball. An annular ring electrode placed in front of the anode allows the identification of the ionic or electronic nature of the currents flowing through sonic parts of the circuits.
