Abstract

Argon ring discharges (3·26 MHz) in the pressure range of 2-50 torr have been studied for applied axial magnetic field strengths between 0 and 4·5 kG. Spectroscopic measurements show very marked increases in low level neutral line intensities near the centre of those discharges which have an applied axial magnetic field. Electron temperatures and densities are derived from the spectroscopic measurements and electrical conductivities predicted by these temperatures and densities are compared with directly measured values of conductivity. The measured dependence of conductivity on magnetic field and pressure agrees well with that predicted by ion mobility.
