  • Abstract
    Two types of tubes have been developed which depend upon an electrical discharge in gas at low pressure. The tubes are of rugged construction which will withstand severe environments. A low pressure-distance product, necessary for high voltage operation, may be obtained by using a short path geometry which allows sufficient gas pressure for high current conduction.
