Description
An experimental investigation of a reflex
discharge in Argon is carried out. Definition is
made of a region of acceptable operating parameters
consistent with continuous, stable operation of
the plasma. Electron temperature is measured through the
use of spectroscopy, electrostatic wave propagation,
and Langmuir Probes. An electron temperature in the
1 eV to 5 eV range is indicated. Electron density
is measured through the observation of the upperhybrid
frequency. This observation yields an electron
density in the region from .27 x 10^8/cm^3 to 2.38 x 10^8/cm^3. The microwave apparatus used in the density measurement
is described in detail.
