Abstract
THE so-called ‘torch discharge’1 (Flammenbogen2) in air, which can be created at a single electrode in the ultra high-frequency undamped oscillation circuit (107 ˜ 108 Hz.), has been the subject of some investigations, but the main interest has been directed towards its chemical aspect; no attempts seem to have been made to study its spectrum. With the view of gaining an insight into the mechanism of the discharge, we have carried out an extensive examination of the spectrum.
