Abstract
Abstract The fundamental physics underlying non-thermal plasmas produced by pulsed discharges at atmospheric pressure is of great interest, especially considering the technological and environmental applications of these plasmas. Discharge dynamics is highly dependent on experimental conditions, such as the propagation medium and the voltage polarity. Herein, we investigate pulsed nanosecond discharges produced by a negatively polarized voltage in a medium of air in-contact with water. Electrical and optical characterization of the discharges is achieved using the appropriate probes and ultrafast imaging, respectively. The time-integrated images are acquired under varying conditions of applied voltage, and the discharge emission is shown to be a homogenous disk at voltages between −4 and −15 kV. When the voltage is increased (absolute value) beyond −15 kV, the homogeneous emission is superimposed with filaments. The temporal evolution of the discharge emission (1 ns integration time) shows that it remains homogeneous and has a ring-like ionization front. At higher voltages and during the falling period, the discharge reignites as filaments that significantly elongate and decrease in intensity until extinguishment. A comparison of discharge emissions obtained at positive and negative polarities indicates that the features of both may be controlled by manipulating the space charge formation dynamics.

Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
