The Initial Stages of the Formation of a Pulsed Discharge in a Gap with a Tip–Plane Geometry in Preionized Argon.

Abstract—The study of the effect of the initial conditions on the features of the formation and development of the anodic ionization wave between two electrodes with a tip–plane gap geometry in argon at atmospheric pressure is performed on the basis of a two-dimensional axisymmetric drift-diffusion model.
