rf Plugging of a Plasma by the Ponderomotive Effect on Electrons

Radio-frequency plugging of a streaming plasma was observed in experiments in which the applied electric fields were too weak for plugging by the ponderomotive effect on ions. The experimental parameters met the requirements for the electron ponderomotive effect with respect to the electron thermal...

Zusammenfassung:Radio-frequency plugging of a streaming plasma was observed in experiments in which the applied electric fields were too weak for plugging by the ponderomotive effect on ions. The experimental parameters met the requirements for the electron ponderomotive effect with respect to the electron thermal speed and the field amplitude. The plugging observed was the result of the ponderomotive effect on electrons
