  • Abstract
    Experimental measurements of a radial coaxial gaseous discharge were made using an adjustable Langmuir probe and a microwave interferometer. Excellent agreement of these results is observed when inhomogeneities of both the electron number density and temperature are accounted for and the electronneutral collisions are assumed to be "hard-sphere" collisions.
