Elastic oscillations of cylindrical fuses
A fast current pulse causes a material to heat and undergo rapid expansion. We calculate the response of a cylindrically shaped material to a pulse on the microsecond time scale. The first step is to obtain the breathing modes of elastic oscillation of the cylinder. These modes are calculated using a Rayleigh–Ritz variational method introduced by Demarest for cubes. The boundary conditions are ...
متن کاملDISTORTION OF PLASMA DUE TO INSTALLATION OF AN ORIFICE IN HELIUM DISCHARGE POSITIVE COLUMN
Complicated potential structure formed at a constriction of positive column of a DC discharge with heated cathode in He at low discharge currents is investigated. According to the potential structure, electrons and ions are accelerated by the electric field and their energy distribution functions acquire multi humped shapes. Additional maximums on distribution functions quickly disappear due to...
متن کاملInhomogeneous Absorbers and Derived Column Densities
We study the dependence of column densities derived from absorption lines on the spatial distribution of the ions in an absorber. In particular, we investigate four varieties of coverage by the absorber of the background source: the familiar homogeneous partial coverage (HPC), and three functional forms that parameterize inhomogeneous coverage: a powerlaw, an ellipse quandrant, and a Gaussian d...
متن کاملPlasma oscillations and expansion of an ultracold neutral plasma
We report the observation of plasma oscillations in an ultracold neutral plasma. With this collective mode we probe the electron density distribution and study the expansion of the plasma as a function of time. For classical plasma conditions, i.e., weak Coulomb coupling, the expansion is dominated by the pressure of the electron gas and is described by a hydrodynamic model. Discrepancies betwe...
متن کاملPotential of an emissive cylindrical probe in plasma.
The floating potential of an emissive cylindrical probe in a plasma is calculated for an arbitrary ratio of Debye length to probe radius and for an arbitrary ion composition. In their motion to the probe the ions are assumed to be collisionless. For a small Debye length, a two-scale analysis for the quasineutral plasma and for the sheath provides analytical expressions for the emitted and colle...
