Abstract
A model of kinetic processes in a nitrogen-oxygen plasma of non-self-m aintained gas discharge is developed. A distinguishing feature of this model is the inclusion of associative ionization reactions involving excited atoms of O(1S). Investigations are performed of the developmen t of instability of non-self-maintained microwave discharges m oxygen- seeded nitrogen. The calculation results adequately describe the avail able experimental data.
