Morphological processing of ultraviolet emissions of electrical corona discharge for analysis and diagnostic use
Matthew Schubert, Andrew Moore · Applied Optics · 2016
Electron cascades from electrical discharge produce secondary emissions from atmospheric plasma in the ultraviolet band. For a single point of discharge, these emissions exhibit a stereotypical discharge morphology, with latent information about the discharge location. Morphological processing can uncover the location and therefore have diagnostic utility.
