摘要
This is a tutorial article. An introductory discussion of direct current gas discharges is presented. Beginning with basic ideas from kinetic theory, gas discharge plasmas are described in terms of phenomena observed in the laboratory. Various models are introduced to account for electrical breakdown, plasma boundaries and the longitudinal and transverse structure of discharges.
