The positive-column plasma in low-pressure noble gas d.c. discharge as an integral plasma-field system

A one-dimension model for positive-column plasma is analyzed. In the framework of this model, a complete, self-consistent set of equations for the plasma column is proposed and justified. Basic prerequisites for the model and the equations used in it are discussed at length to clarify the mathematic...
