А plasma and space-charge sheath equation that extends the Langmuir-Tonks equation to а two-dimensionally nonuniform plasma has been oЬtained. This equation can serve as а basis for calculating the spatial characteristics of the plasma of а gas-discharge positive column of arbltrarily shaped boundary under conditions of free flight of ions. The results oЬtained are of interest in modeling the processes occurring in ion sources and low-pressure plasma chemical reactors.
