In this paper we study the creation process of a cylindrical pulsed argon plasma. A new numerical model to simulate the plasma evolution during the creation process has been developed. This model is based on the solution of the continuity equations for ions and electrons together with the Poissonrsquo;s equation. The good agreement obtained between numerical and experimental results of electron density as a function of the time confirms the validity of the hypothesis made in the model proposed.
