Abstract
The I–V and voltage-baric characteristics of the dc arc glowing in argon between a tungsten cathode and a molten anode made of titanium, chromium, or manganese are studied at various gas pressures, arc currents, and arc lengths. The arc is probed to establish the relation between the voltage drop across the arc and its regions on the anode material and the melting conditions.
