Abstract
A simple and effective technique for reducing an external magnet flux emitted from a driven inductor surrounded by an ionizable gaseous medium. This technique includes surrounding the inductor with at least one shielding conductive loop, terminating the shielding loop in a capacitive termination to resonate, and maintaining a resonant frequency of the capacitive termination in series with an inductance of the shielding loop below the predetermined driving frequency of the inductor.
