ABSTRACT:
Apparatus wherein a partially ionized mass of gas is enclosed by a rotationally symmetric, axially elongate housing and set in rotation by a force which arises as a result of a substantially axial magnetic field constant in time and an electric current having a non-zero vector component in the radial direction, whereby positively charged ions originating from a centralized axial gas discharge arc region and moving at a high speed of rotation set the whole mass of gas in rotation by pulse transfer, said housing being lined on the inside with annular wall electrodes segmented in non-azimuthal direction and arranged against each other; the inside wall of said housing at an extremity thereof curving toward the center axis and approaching a centrally mounted electrode of opposite polarity, the wall electrodes being connected with variable resistors which are adjusted so that the voltage applied to the wall electrodes increases blockwise from a minimum value at a chosen point on the axis of the housing to the grid-or anode voltage of the said axial gas discharge arc region, whereby the wall electrode which is closest to the central electrode exhibits with respect thereto the smallest potential difference of all the wall electrodes, in an extreme case the potential difference being zero.
