Abstract

FOLLOWING Joshi's observation1,2 that the discharge current i due to a potential V depends on VVm, where Vm is the threshold potential characteristic of a discharge reaction, and that Vm is affected by a transverse magnetic field H, we have carried out some detailed investigations of a change with H of i in several gases and vapours excited in an ozonizer, at various frequencies n.
