A.P.Ershov, I.B.Timofeev, V.A.Chernikov, V.M.Shibkov

          Results of investigation of plasma parameters of transversal direct current discharge and pulse periodic discharge with I - 1-10 A in supersonic air flow at Mach number M = 2 and pressure 10-100 torr are presented. Formation of MW discharge in supersonic flow at these conditions is described.
