In an attempt to reduce the large anode fall voltages associated with transverse discharges, the use of a secondary discharge to introduce or generate more electrons in the near-anode region is investigated. Changes in near-anode plasma properties are measured via Langmuir probes and emission spectroscopy. Additionally, from an energetics standpoint, the interaction between the secondary and primary discharge is accessed from electron energy distribution measurements. Actual changes in the anode fall driven anode power deposition is also presented as a function of the measured modifications made to the near-anode plasma.
