  • Abstract
    The first electrical property we shall discuss is the d.c. conductivity. Gases have essentially no d.c. conductivity beyond that due to stray charges produced by various radioactive processes always present. The reason for this lack of conductivity even when the gas is composed of a substance quite conducting in the liquid state is the difficulty of separating charge in a medium of low dielectric constant.
