Abstract
A new theoretical model for the potential distribution in the surroundings of a cylindrical conductor placed inside a neutral plasma permitted us to analyse the effect of the positive ion thermal motion on the ion current collected by a cylindrical Langmuir probe. The new theoretical model includes the ABR (Allen - Boyd - Reynolds) theory as a limiting case, which is that of a negligible ion temperature compared to the electron temperature.
