Abstract

<abstract abstract-type="main" xml:lang="en"> <title>Abstract</title> <p>Time‐resolved measurements of the plasma parameters are performed in the plume of a cross‐field discharge. The plasma potential is measured with a cylindrical Langmuir probe and an emissive probe. The electron temperature and density are measured with a cylindrical Langmuir probe. The cross‐field discharge is maintained in a harmonic oscillation regime to guarantee reproducible conditions for all measurements (© 2013 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH &amp; Co.
