Number Density Distributions of Metal Vapor in Helium Gas Tungsten Arcs

Density expansion for the mobility of electrons in helium gas.

We calculate the electron mobility for a quantum Lorentz model, which provides a realistic description of electrons in Helium gas, to second order in the gas density. We show that this provides sufficient theoretical information to allow for an experimental observation of the famous logarithmic term in the density expansion. Detailed predictions, and a discussion of a suitable parameter range, ...

Influence of gas pressure and cathode composition on ion energy distributions in filtered cathodic vacuum arcs

We report measurements of ion energy distributions of ionized species in titanium and aluminium filtered cathodic vacuum arcs operating in oxygen and nitrogen gas atmospheres. The ion energy distributions were recorded using a Hiden mass selected ion energy analyzer. The results show that a significant reduction in ion energies and a change in the shape of ion energy distributions occurs as the...
