Abstract
We describe an apparatus which forms a hollow cylindrical plasma shell of 3×2 cm2 cross section 40 cm in diameter by injecting a neutral gas shell of argon via supersonic injection nozzles and ionizing this shell with a high‐voltage electrical discharge.This publication has 7 references indexed in Scilit:
