Abstract

A theory of avalanche ionization of gases in weakly nonuniform electric fields is developed. The generally nonlocal problem of the current growth is reduced to the solution of two ordinary differential equations. As an example the theory is applied to the case of the discharge between two concentric cylindrical electrodes.
