Bibliography of data on electrical breakdown in gases

A bibliography of currently published data on electrical breakdown in gases is presented. The bibliography contains a list of archival papers and books published since 1950, an index indicating the references that give particular types of data for each gas, and author index, and a list of relevant, regular technical conferences. The 465 citations given in the bibliography contain experimental or theoretical data on breakdown which include: (1) sparking potentials; (2) breakdown voltages; (3) critical fields, or field-to-gas density ratios; (4) corona inception voltages; (5) voltage-time characteristics; (6) relative and absolute dielectric strengths; and (7) breakdown probabilities. Types of data considered include those which apply to uniform and nonuniform fields; ac, dc, and impulse voltages; and possible effects of particles, surfaces, interfaces, and corona.
