Electron temperature differences and double layers

  • 1. Department of Nuclear Engineering, University of Wisconsin, Madison, Wisconsin 53706

Description

Electron temperature differences across plasma double layers are studied experimentally. It is shown that the temperature differences across a double layer can be varied and are not a result of thermalization of the bump-on-tail distribution. The implications of these results for electron thermal energy transport in laser-pellet and tandem-mirror experiments are also discussed
