dc.description.abstractA statistical simulation of the low‐voltage arc mode of plasma diodes is carried out on a large‐scale digital computer to ascertain the importance of various thermalization and transport mechanisms. The computer experiment is two‐dimensional and utilizes Monte Carlo techniques to study the low‐voltage arc in neon at p=2 Torr, current=4 A, and diode spacing=2.37 cm. Results on the potential distribution, electron‐density distribution, and electron‐energy density function are presented and discussed. The theoretical results are correlated with experimental results.en_US
