The influence of a magnetic field, parallel to the cathode, on the second cathode sheath of a low-pressure arc discharge

  • Published:
Applied Scientific Research, Section B

Summary

The influence on the second sheath of a magnetic field, directed parallel to the indirectly heated cathode of a low pressure gas discharge is described.

The phenomena are in accordance with the existing picture of the discharge mechanism, based on beam-plasma space-charge interaction.
