The measurements of the amplitude-frequency characteristics were done for the high-frequency torch discharge burning in argon. The resonant character of the electric field fourth harmonic attenuation was found. The axial harmonics distribution measurements of the electric field were done for the torch discharge burning in argon-air mixture. The electron concentration in the investigated plasma discharge was evaluated. The selective influence of the change in the electron concentration on the propagation process of the fourth harmonic of the electric field was found.

The measurements of axial harmonics distribution of the radial component of the electric field have been made for a torch discharge burning in argon and argon-air mixture. The resonant character of the electric field fourth harmonic attenuation has been found. Using the Saha formula for the two-temperature plasma the electrons concentration and the electrons Langmuir frequency of the investigated plasma discharge have been evaluated.

Introduction: Within the framework of the phenomenological theory of phase transitions of the second kind of Ginzburg-Landau, the kinetics of ordering of a rapidly quenched highly nonequilibrium domain structure is considered using the lithium tantalate and lithium niobate crystals as an example. Experimental: Using the statistical approach, evolution equations describing the formation of the domain structure under the influence of a high-frequency alternating electric field in the form of a standing wave were obtained. Numerical analysis has shown the possibility of forming thermodynamically stable mono- and polydomain structures. It turned out that the process of relaxation of the system to the state of thermodynamic equilibrium can proceed directly or with the formation of intermediate quasi-stationary polydomain asymmetric phases. Results: It is shown that the formation of Regular Domain Structures (RDS) is of a threshold character and occurs under the influence of an alternating electric field with an amplitude less than the critical value, whose value depends on the field frequency. The conditions for the formation of RDSs with a micrometer spatial scale were determined. Conclusion: As shown by numerical studies, the RDSs obtained retain their stability, i.e. do not disappear even after turning off the external electric field. Qualitative analysis using lithium niobate crystals as an example has shown the possibility of RDSs formation in high-frequency fields with small amplitude under resonance conditions

Herein is described a calculation of the effective coffision frequency νeffof a low- density, shock-heated argon plasma under the influence of a weak electric field which oscillates harmonically with angular frequency ω. It is shown that, for the high frequency case ω >whereis the collision frequency in a Maxwellian gas plasma, one has νeff⋍ 2, provided that the imaginary part of the argon plasma conductivity is negligibly small in comparison to the real part. The influence of the theoretical model used to calculate νeffon the values of the electron temperatureTederived from measurements is compared with the results obtained in a data reduction for which the hard-sphere model for particle encounters was utilized.
