Show affiliations


Considerable advances have been attained during the last decade in the theoretical and experimental investigation of electrode phenomena in high-pressure arc discharges, in particular, in low-current arcs that occur in high-intensity discharge lamps. The aim of this paper is to deliver a concise review of the understanding achieved and modelling methods developed.
