The role of the ambipolar field in the formation of the EDF and the criteria of the local approximation
2017
Journal of Physics, Conference Series
Preserved Fulltext
It is shown that in the situation when the ambipolar field exceeds the heating field the local approximation (LA) for determining the EDF is not applicable even if the energy relaxation length of the electron is relatively small. Therefore, accurate results can be obtained only solving the kinetic equation in energy and spatial variables.
