Particle simulation of atmospheric streamer discharges on conductors with surface protrusion

A kinetic model of atmospheric streamer discharges on conductors with surface protrusion is first presented. The formations of streamer discharges in air on both the smooth conductors and rough conductors with different surface protrusions have been studied by using two-dimensional particle-in-cell...
