Abstract
We present results from numerical simulations on mixed-mode oscillations and chaos excited in a glow discharge, where a model of one-dimensional fluid equations coupled with an external circuit is used. Long duration of high ion and electron densities and fast recharge of a capacitor after a breakdown contribute to the generation of mixed-mode oscillations. The chaotic behavior is characterized by a one-dimensional multibranched map.
