Abstract
Based on the known experimental and theoretical data, a new model of the plasma jet, which emit by cathode spot (СS) along the magnetic field proposed. According to this model, the plasma jet contains an oppositely directed current of accelerated ions of the cathode material with an excess positive charge and a current of accelerated
electrons with an excess negative charge, between which an electric field of polarization of the plasma jet formed. Based on this model, the basic parameters of the plasma jet from the external parameters of the magnetic field, the arc current, and the average charge state of the ions calculated. The main mechanisms affecting the speed and
direction of movement of the arc CS on the cathode end surface clarified for the first time.
