Abstract

It has been investigates that electric characteristics of plasma electron beam in N$_{2}$, H$_{2}$ and Ar gas jars under various gas pressures during electron beams are formed. The results are as follows: 1)Electron beam is formed in the region of positive resistance on the characteristic curve. This phenomenon is identical in N$_{2}$, H$_{2}$ and Ar gases. 2)But in Ar gas, electron beam is formed at relatively lower gas pressure than in H$_{2}$ and N$_{2}$. 3)In pure gas either N$_{2}$, H$_{2}$ and N$_{2}$ the lower the gas pressure, the higher the voltage drop for the same electron beam current. 4)The region in which electron beam is formed is limited at a given pressure. 5)Beyond the limit mentioned above, it becomes glow discharge state and the current increases radically. 6)At a given gas pressure, electron beam voltage, that is, electrical power input increases with gap length.
