Abstract:
The dependences of the length of exponential enhancement of the runaway electron avalanche on the electric field strength and air and helium pressure were calculated using the Monte Carlo method. The calculation results allow one to arrive at the conclusion that the length and time of the exponential enhancement of the runaway avalanche electrons decrease with decreasing pressure and atomic number of the discharge gas, provided that the electric field strengths are equal.
