A new ionization process in the afterglow of pulsed hollow cathode discharge

We report a new ionization process occurring in the afterglow of high density current hollow cathode pulsed discharge. The process involving the atomic and ionic metastables may be of practical interest in the investigation of population inversion and lasing on noble gases ion transitions in the tem...

Description
Summary:We report a new ionization process occurring in the afterglow of high density current hollow cathode pulsed discharge. The process involving the atomic and ionic metastables may be of practical interest in the investigation of population inversion and lasing on noble gases ion transitions in the temporal afterglow plasmas.
