Stationary striations in plasma, created by a short microwave pulse in a waveguide filled with a neutral gas

Authors:

Abstract
It was observed experimentally that after crossing a waveguide filled with a neutral gas a short powerful microwave pulse leaves a periodic glow of plasma along the waveguide, persisting for several tens of nanoseconds. A theoretical model is presented which in combination with numerical simulations proposes a possible explanation for this phenomenon.
