The Influence of Diffusion and Reabsorption of Radiation on the Particle and Energy Balance of an Infinitely Long Quasi-Cylindrical Discharge in Hydrogen Gas

摘要

A model, which accounts for the diffusion of electrons, ions and neutral atoms in the ground state and for the reabsorption of Lyman-alpha and Lyman-beta radiation in an infinitely long quasi-cylindrical discharge in hydrogen gas was constructed. The transport theory for a toroidal plasma of high collisionality was used. The assumptions that form the basis are discussed.
