摘要
Current pulse shapes have been measured in negative and positive corona discharges mostly in dry air. Negative corona Trichel pulses and pulses corresponding to the primary streamer/cathode contact in a positive point-plane gap were found to exhibit remarkable similarities, indicating a positive-streamer-like mechanism for the Trichel pulse development. High-frequency instabilities of the high-pressure filamentary glow discharge, which can be responsible for the arcing from freshly polished cathodes, were observed and attributed to local positive-streamer-like breakdowns of the cathode sheath.
