Abstract
<jats:p>Electrical discharges in gases correspond to the phenomena of electrical conduction that occur when a sufficiently intense electric field is applied to a normally insulating gas. Under the influence of the field, charged particles (electrons and ions) are created, accelerated, and set in motion, allowing the passage of electric current through the gaseous medium. Discharges in gases play a crucial role in numerous industrial and scientific applications, such as high- voltage insulation, switching devices, discharge lamps, plasma surface treatment, and the study and control of breakdown phenomena in electrical systems. Understanding them is therefore fundamental to the design and reliability of electrical equipment and plasma technologies.</jats:p>
