“…namely, the discharge voltage is 3.5-4 kV, Ar is taken as an ignition gas, cathodes are made of Ti, and the time interval, during which a density of about 2 × 10 19 m −3 is attained, is about 100 µs. The stage of discharge ignition will not be considered now, because such an analysis was carried out earlier (see, e.g., work [16]). First, let us consider the processes associated with the interaction between the plasma and the surface of a solid.…”
