Abstract
Free-localized pulsed microwave discharge in atmospheric air in the focus of an open two-mirror high-Q resonator excited by linearly polarized electromagnetic radiation with a wavelength of 4.3 cm is described. This discharge is analogous to the previously studied streamer resonance microwave discharge ignited under similar conditions but with an electromagnetic radiation wavelength of 8.9 cm. Starting from a certain overcritical electric field, the discharge plasma channel has a high-temperature core.
