Abstract

The conditions for the excitation of low-frequency oscillations in a plasma ring formed by an ECR discharge in a narrow coaxial cavity filled with argon were studied experimentally. The domain of the discharge parameters where these oscillations are stable is determined. It is supposed that the oscillations recorded are excited due to the appearance of an electrostatic wave propagating in the azimuthal direction.
