Popis: | Nanosecond electric discharges in atmospheric air at high overvoltages are considered. Plasma channels and diffuse plasma glow simultaneously exist in these discharges. Channels are created by subnanosecond streamers formed in the cathode region. Diffuse glow is caused by runaway electrons emitted by electron avalanche heads. The necessary electric field enhancement is created due to the plasma configuration in the avalanche head and body. |
