Abstract

The generation of a plasma by fission‐fragment ionization of noble gases is reported. The experimental data consist of steady‐state current‐voltage (I‐V) characteristics obtained with ceramic‐metal ionization tubes which were operated in the high neutron flux region of a nuclear reactor. The observed dependence of I on V½ for applied potentials
