Description

The dynamics and spatial distribution of the electron temperature in the screening layer plasma are investigated experimentally. The layer is produced during the interaction of intensive (10 MW/cm2) plasma flows with tungsten are graphite targets. It is found that the target plasma is hot (Te > 50 eV) up to 3 mm from the graphite surface. The role of the low-dense corona of the screening layer on the energy balance of interaction is analyzed
