Abstract
An experiment is conducted to study the comparative effect of a transverse magnetic field (TMF) and stainless steel (ss) plates in a filament discharge in a double plasma device (DPD). A variable transverse magnetic field is setup between the source and the target regions of the DPD using permanent magnets. By changing the distance between magnetic pole separations, the magnetic field is varied in the range of 80 Gauss to 300 Gauss. Plasma diffuses from the source to the target region through this field. Changing the discharge voltage and the discharge current varies the discharge conditions. Langmuir probes are placed in the source and target regions to measure the plasma parameters. Ss plates of similar surface area then replace the TMF and these data are compared with the TMF data to show the effect of the TMF on plasma parameters in comparison to the ss plates. It is seen that the magnetic field causes the plasma parameters to vary in a consistent way when the discharge parameters are varied.
