Abstract

There are represented relations for approximate estimation of discharge current rise time in triode electrode systems of high-voltage glow discharge in case of applying of control pulses to auxiliary electrode. Theoretical transient analysis of high-voltage glow discharge is based on definition of the anode plasma volume and its ions concentration. Represented calculations show current rise time in real systems of high-voltage glow discharge is from 20 to 250 μs. Obtained results have great practical value for design of cathode-ray equipment.
