The paper presents results of the use of computational tomography techniques for the processing of experimental data obtained with the help of a plasma tomograph. On the basis of the data acquired, physical processes have been determined taking place in plasma, and the behaviour of some integral characteristics of an electric are discharge in a longitudinal magnetic field has been explained. A possibility to determine optically a certain effective electric field strength of an unsteady state plasma has also been demonstrated.
