“…We briefly summarize here the principles and properties of these crossed-field discharges. More details and references can be found in the early review of low pressure magnetically confined discharges by Hooper [1], in the paper on instabilities in low pressure crossed-field devices by Redhead [2] and in the more recent reviews on E × B devices by Keidar and Billis [3], and Abolmasov [4]. Depending on pressure, magnetic field, and applied voltage, different regimes of the discharges in the E × B configurations of Figure 1 can be observed and Abolmassov [4] proposed a classification of these regimes based on the categories defined by Schuurman [5] for Penning discharges.…”

“…In partially magnetized discharges such as Hall thrusters 1,2 , magnetron discharges 3 , ion sources for neutral beam injection 4 , Penning discharges 5 , etc…, the region of strong ionization is separated from the anode by a region of relatively low magnetic field and low electron temperature that we call "near-anode region" in this paper. In a Hall thruster, the length of this region in on the order of 1 to 2 cm, the gas pressure is in the mtorr range and the average magnetic field is on the order of or less than 50 G. Electrons are magnetized and collisional but the Hall parameter (ratio of the electron cyclotron frequency to the electron collision frequency) is large and their residence time is considerably increased by the magnetic field in the absence of instabilities.…”

“…The acquisition of such data is the focus of ongoing work, which also includes an investigation of the plasma fluctuation characteristics, motivated by the prevalence of substantial low frequency oscillations in similar plasma devices. [17][18][19] …”
