Abstract

The growth of an electrical discharge in transparent liquids can be observed using a simple shadowgraph technique. The photographic recordings resemble those obtained using the Lichtenberg technique. However, the shadowgraph system has the advantage that the test liquid is not disturbed by the recording medium.

Preliminary observations reveal basic differences between the point-cathode and point-anode discharge phenomena.
