  • Abstract
    The aim of this article is to present Paschen characteristic formulae with appropriate constants for most of the common gases used in high voltage technology. This aim is achieved by choosing two appropriate well-separated values on the Paschen characteristic, and this enables the two physical-engineering constants B and C in formula to be determined.
