Abstract :
Research of extreme importance in the field of electric welding is reviewed briefly in this progress report. Laboratory tests have demonstrated the impossibility to strike an arc with 1 2 0 volts between pure iron electrodes in an atmosphere of pure argon, an observation that may require the modification of basic conceptions of the nature of the electric arc discharge
