“…In addition, any vapour jet from the anode root impinges on the cathode in this region. The experiments of Maxfield et al (1940) suggest that a local increase of vapour density above the cathode surface increases the probability of establishing a cathode spot. Such an effect would be expected if excited atoms do in fact play a significant part in the emission mechanism.…”

“…In the presence of a magnetic field an electric arc moves in a direction mutually perpendicular to the axes of the arc and the magnetic field. The sense of the motion is given by Ampkre's law at atmospheric pressure, but as the pressure is reduced the arc slows down, stops and eventually moves in the opposite or retrograde direction (Yamamura 1957).…”
