  • Abstract
    Fast ionization waves generated by nanosecond pulses are capable of delivering intense electric field, UV light, and charged and excited species to spatially distant locations. In this paper, the splitting of a fast ionization wave in a N2 plasma in a T-shaped dielectric channel is numerically investigated. Images of electron impact source function and density are presented.
