Notes:
Space potential measurements with a continuously emitting probe suffer from the difficulty of a potential drop across the probe tip. In this paper we derive a simple method to ensure that the measurements are accurate in spite of this potential drop. Experimental results obtained in a single-ended Q-machine confirm the theoretical findings and provide reassuring evidence that the potential drop does not disturb the space potential unduly.
