Description
A Mathematica-based package for probe investigations of low-temperature plasmas has been developed. The package allows us to calculate probe current for high pressure and magnetized plasmas and to determine electron energy or velocity distribution functions from probe measurements in the plasmas. Besides it is possible to calculate electron velocity distribution functions from probe measurements in anisotropic low-pressure plasmas.
