Hairpin probes measure electron density in plasmas where other techniques are unsuitable. Previous hairpins were constructed as a quarter-wave resonant structure typically made from a folded piece of wire. The present work conducts the…
Context: Several approaches to estimate frequency, phase and amplitude errors in time series analyses were reported in the literature, but they are either time consuming to compute, grossly overestimating the error, or are based on…
