Evaluations of the electron energy distribution in multidipole plasmas

  • 1. James Madison Univ., Harrisonburg, VA

Description

In a previous paper a preliminary evaluation of the electron energy distribution in multidipole plasmas was presented. A polynominal regression technique for evaluating the distribution function from Langmuir probe current-voltage characteristics was described. This paper presents an extension of that analysis and the evaluations of the electron energy distributions in multidipole argon and hydrogen plasmas
