Abstract :
Summary form only. A new self-organization phenomenon in gas discharge plasma has been experimentally observed for the first time and it is described in this paper. A number of spherical glow structures nested one into another in a low pressure DC bulk electrical discharge was registered. The walls of a vacuum chamber served as a cathode, and a small electrode placed in the centre of the chamber served as an anode.
