Abstract

The time behavior of the electric characteristic resistance and inductance in a pulsed gas discharge is revealed through a procedure which exploits only the voltage waveform. This can be achieved combining step by step the waveform with the differential equation governing the performance of the system. This method is described analytically in the text. Its application showed that the resistance drops sheerly in the first few ns from a very high value while the inductance presents a peak in the “formation phase” of the discharge (first 40 ns). These are due to the reaction of the system to the oncoming sudden variation.
