| Description | The experimental and simulated optical emissions of an air discharge at atmospheric pressure propagating in a capillary glass tube are compared for two tube radii: 100 and 300 um . For 300 um, both experimental and calculated optical emissions show a tubular structure of the discharge. For 100um, the emission of the discharge appears to be more homogeneous radially. |
