Abstract

Plasma gun is a very effective source to fire plasma structures and has a wide range of applications in optimization of plasma parameters of the plasma structure fired from plasma gun is an important field of research. The effect of background plasma upon plasma structure fired from a plasma gun is reported in this communication. It is observed that in the presence of background plasma both electron density and electron temperature of plasma structure is increased.
