The paper considers a physical and mathematical model describing the influence of an external transverse magnetic field on the distribution of charged particles in a positive column of a gas discharge. This model is developed in relation to the weakly ionized plasma of a gas-discharge laser. In this case, the plasma flow is considered as an analog of a liquid consisting of two practically independent components – electrons and ions.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
