Abstract

The transition of a negative corona discharge into a glow discharge at atmospheric pressure is investigated. The volt-ampere characteristics of a pin-to-plate discharge configuration reveal the existence of three discharge regimes: corona, glow, and spark. The discharge luminosity is indicative of the differences in the electrical field distribution in the different regimes.
