Abstract
A new method for creating high-current plasma channels is developed. The method uses a narrow gas column formed by the leading particles of a nonsteady gas jet outflowing into a vacuum. An electric discharge device with a system for the formation of a narrow gas column is experimentally studied. The parameters of emission from the plasma channel are measured.
