“…In air, the after-effect of a discharge on the rise and development of the next discharge is usually attributed to residual ions [4,5], chemical products (ozone, nitrous oxides, etc) [6,7] and neutral excited species [5]. Detachment of electrons from negative ions under the influence of the applied electric field is the dominant creation process of free electrons for triggering a corona discharge [4,5,[8][9][10][11][12][13]. The changes in rise probability of a discharge are caused mainly by the residual negative ions.…”
