摘　　要：通过脉冲放电方式产生三维螺旋形的等离子体放电通道,在高速摄像机拍摄下观察到放电通道中的发光电离体以流注形式沿螺旋轨迹快速传播.建立电磁模型解释螺旋放电的形成机制,对造成对称性破缺及影响其手性性质的极向电场进行分析.研究表明,螺旋放电产生的放电通道存在两种不同的手性特征,而脉冲重复频率等放电参数及边界条件对螺旋流注的传播特性存在影响.脉冲电源驱动的电磁场在介质管内所形成的波模是极向电场形成的一个重要来源,当极向电场与轴向电场强度相近时则形成螺旋流注放电.The plasma discharge channel in three-dimensional helical shape induced by pulsed direct current （DC） discharge without external stable magnetic field is discovered experimentally. It can be observed by intensified charge-coupled device camera that a luminous plasma structure fast propagates along a helical path in the form of guided streamer （ionization wave）. And the propagation of the streamer is stable and repeatable. We take this streamer which propagates along the helical discharge path as the study object, and explain its mechanism by constructing an electromagnetic model. The result shows that the helical shape plasma plumes can exhibit two different chiral characteristics （right- handed and left-handed helical pattern）. While the discharge parameters such as pulse frequency, boundary condition, etc. can all affect the propagating characteristics of helical streamers. The electromagnetic radiation driven by pulsed DC power inside the dielectric tube which forms the wave mode is an important source of the poloidal electrical field. The helical steamers form when the poloidal electrical field is close to the axial electrical field. The velocities of the propagation in poloidal and axial direction are estimated respectively, and the hybrid propagation modes involving the interchangeable helical pattern and the straight-line pattern propagating plasmas are explained from the viewpoint of multi-wave interaction.
