The development of electricity has been the subject of numerous historical studies (e.g., [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8]) and therefore there is no need to repeat the findings of these studies here. Instead, the historical work can be used to illuminate the development from a different perspective, namely, the discovery, development, understanding, control, and application of discharge plasmas.…”

His concluding remarks were 'From these experiments it may be concluded that the phosphorescent substance emits radiations which penetrates paper that is opaque to light and reduces silver salts in a photographic plate' [31].…”

“…It is not known why Becquerel decided to develop the unexposed plate on 1 March. He reported to the Académie [32] that he had shown that the film blacking was not connected with sunlight nor caused by luminous radiation emitted by phosphorescence [33].…”
