Effect of Supersonic Ion Beams on the Triple Probe Measurement
Abstract
Although theory of the triple probe for Maxwellian plasma is well known, analysis with ion beams has not been established. Since plasma parameters, especially electron temperature, are distorted severely in the presence of supersonic ion beams, a new model for deducing electron temperature is introduced by solving the governing equations of the triple probe including the beam currents to three probe tips through simple assumptions. © 2006 WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.
