Contraction of the positive column of a glow discharge in inert gases with account of resonance radiation transport

Аннотация

A previously proposed method for accurate description of resonance radiation transport in solving self-consistent problems is applied to a model of the contraction of the positive column of a glow discharge in argon. The exact solution to the problem and the solution obtained within the framework of the traditional approximation of local effective transition probability according to Biberman are compared. The influence of radiation transport on various plasma parameters is demonstrated
