Description

Thermal plasmas offer a good possibility to obtain intense particle sources for neutralizers. The principle is to produce a plasma at high pressure, since then a high energy efficiency and ionization degree can be reached. In this paper a conceptual design for a plasma neutralizer is presented and detailed numerical data on the cascade arc as the plasma source is given. Where available, these are verified with experimental results. (author) 4 refs., 4 figs
