Abstract
The design and construction of a millimeter size noninvasive capacitive pro be array to investigate ionization growth phenomena in pulsed capillary dis charges are presented. The probes estimated to be characterized by a time r esponse better than 0.5 ns, with very good electric noise rejection. The pr obes have identified a fast ionization wave in the prebreakdown phase of a hollow cathode initiated fast pulsed capillary discharge. (C) 2001 American Institute of Physics.
