| 内容記述 | A theory is developed for quasi-neutral and nonneutral ambipolar diffusion in a weakly ionized multiconstituent plasma. Magnetic field effects are disregarded. The effects of negative ions and various positive and negative ion diffusion coefficients are identified. It is found that the presence of negative ions leads to enhanced electron diffusion and a retarded diffusion of positive ions. In some cases electrons may be forcibly propelled from the area of perturbations in ionic concentrations. The ambipolar electric field is observed to cause negative ions to flow in a countergradient fashion where the gradient is small. Electrons tend toward a more homogeneous spatial distribution in the nonneutral case than in the quasi-neutral case. |
