Abstract
Time-resolved observation of an electrical discharge in water using high-speed camera is presented. The discharge is generated in a pin to pin geometry with shock wave assistance. The shock wave generates cavitation bubbles that enhance the discharge. The initiation and growth of streamers are observed. An electric spark is generated as a result of one of the streamer reaching a counter electrode.
