Plasma oscillations in low pressure gaseous discharges
This is a continuation of work at the U. S. Naval Postgraduate School
under Professor N. L. Oleson, investigating oscillations in low pressure
ionized gases. Druyvesteyn analysis (using electronic methods for obtaining
first and second derivatives of probe current versus probe potential)
and Langmuir probe techniques, are utilized for the investigation of discharges
in Neon, Argon, and Krypton at ten microns pressure. Plasma
densities as determined from the positive ion section of the probe current
curves, from Druyvesteyn analysis, and from observed electron oscillation frequencies, are compared with oscillation amplitudes. Electron oscillations
were not detected throughout the discharge; however, at some positions
multiple frequencies were detected. Ion oscillations, detected throughout the discharge, corresponded in magnitude to Langmuir electrostatic sound waves, and peaked in amplitude with electron oscillations.http://www.archive.org/details/plasmaoscillatio00ketcLieutenant, United States Coast GuardLieutenant Commander, Civil Engineer Corp
