Abstract

A theoretical study is made of the features of the radiational-plasmadynamic processes occurring in pulsed high-current radiating discharges in gaseous media at atmospheric pressure when a capacitive store is discharged across an extended interelectrode gap L=10–100 cm. Discharges of this kind are efficaciously employed as radiation sources and generators of strong shock waves in various scientific and practical applications [see A. F. Aleksandrov and A. A. Rukhadze, Physics of High-Current Electric-Discharge Light Sources [in Russian], Atomizdat, Moscow (1976), p. 181, and Radiational Plasmadynamics [in Russian], Énergoatomizdat, Moscow (1991), p. 572].
