Abstract

The electron energy distribution function in mercury discharge positive columns are calculated numerically from the Boltzmann eqation under a set of parameters, such as the electron temperature to. the atomic temperature Tw. the electron number density no. and the electric field E. Especially, using the approximation that collision cross sections only depend on the energy, the calculated electron energy distribution function was shown that it falls off rapidly in the high energy tail.
