The dissipation of space charge following the growth of impulse corona discharges in positive rod/earthed plane gaps has been measured with an electrostatic fluxmeter. A method is described to determine the spatial distribution and magnitude of the space charge together with the associated electric field. Initial positive ion densities of up to 100 μC m -3 have been found. The total positive space charge deposited in a 40 cm gap at 160 kV is 500 nC. Electrons emitted from the plane electrode as a result of corona channels crossing the gap are shown to be trapped in the discharge space as negative ions. The recovery of the gap over several seconds is largely due to ionic drift to the electrodes. A theoretical derivation of the rate of deionization agrees with observed values.

Abstract Thermally stimulated current-curves in CdS platelets with slit electrodes change their character when the photoelectric gain-factor increases above one. Here the photocurrent remains essentially frozen-in up to temperatures at which marked thermal quenching sets in. A positive space charge region is assumed to be responsible for the frozen-in photocurrent. A reliable TSC-analysis of the trap distribution can be conducted only for gain factors considerably below one.

2D-hybrid model was created for the proposed new type accelerator with a virtual cathode which allows to avoid sputtering of the cathode surface and to preserve the dynamics of accelerated ions. In the framework of the model, it was shown that ions first form a positive space charge in the system center, and eventually, under an ac-tion of created own electric field, emerge from both ends of the system.
