Title :
Wave form and amplification of corona discharge
Abstract :
J. H. Morecroft: There is only one point on which I can add anything and that is on the use of the vacuum tube as a voltage rectifier. It is an experimental instrument not used very much as yet by electrical engineers, but as Dr. Hull told us some time ago, it will be used by every engineer very soon. There are certain cases where voltages are to be measured where it is impossible to get the measurement without the use of the vacuum tube.
