Optical emission spectroscopy of non-equilibrium microwave plasma torch sustained by focused radiation of gyrotron at 24 GHz
Sergey Sintsov, Kuniyoshi Tabata, Dmitry Mansfeld +2
The electron and gas temperature of non-equilibrium argon plasma torch sustained by a focused 24 GHz microwave beam in the external atmosphere of air was measured by optical emissi…
Measurements of the energy distribution of electrons lost from the minimum B-field -- the effect of instabilities and two-frequency heating
Ivan Izotov, Olli Tarvainen, Vadim Skalyga +5
Further progress in the development of ECR ion sources (ECRIS) requires deeper understanding of the underlying physics. One of the topics that remains obscure, though being crucial…
Measurement of electron temperature in a non-equilibrium discharge of atmospheric pressure supported by focused microwave radiation from a 24 GHz gyrotron
Sergey Sintsov, Alexander Vodopyanov, Dmitry Mansfeld
A microwave discharge of atmospheric pressure, maintained by focused CW radiation of a 24-GHz gyrotron in an argon flow in an external air atmosphere, was investigated. The electro…
Plasma losses from mirror trap, initiated by microwave radiation under electron cyclotron resonance conditions
D. A. Mansfeld, A. V. Vodopyanov, M. D. Tokman +3
Plasma of a stationary ECR discharge sustained by gyrotron radiation at a frequency of 24 GHz and a power of up to 600 W in a mirror magnetic trap was studied. At pressures near th…
