Abstract:
A new phenomenon has been discovered where a bend of a plasma channel becomes of a source of one or several diffuse jets that have a length (at a given voltage) up to 4–6 cm and are directed across the plasma channel at a pulse-periodic spark discharge in air under normal conditions. The phenomenon is called apokamp discharge (apokamp). The spectrum of radiation of the apokamp includes primarily the bands of electron-vibrational transitions of the second positive system of molecular nitrogen. The conditions of the formation of apokamp have been experimentally revealed and it has been established that it consists of plasma bunches moving from the plasma channel at each pulse at a velocity of about 220 km/s.
