  • Abstract
    Generation of plasma under supercritical conditions is of fundamental and applied interest. In this paper, the reduced electric fields required for breakdown of gaseous and supercritical carbon dioxide are comparatively analyzed for planar and coaxial cylindrical geometries. The indirect comparison of measured breakdown voltages suggests an essential change in the ionization mechanism both for uniform and nonuniform fields
