Abstract
Time-resolved pictures of discharges with simultaneous recording of predischarge currents have been obtained in different oil gaps under impulse voltage of positive polarity. It has been stated that in certain experimental conditions, a process similar to the leader process in air occurs, with the typical features of a leader channel and a streamer zone
