Corona discharge the electron-liberation is a high-energy photon from an atom within the plasma body relaxing after excitation from an earlier collision. The use of ionized neutral gas as a source of ionization is further diminished in a negative corona by the high-concentration of positive ions clustering around the curved electrode. Under other conditions, the collision of the positive species with the curved electrode can also cause electron liberation. The difference, then, between positive and negative coronas, in the matter of the generation of secondary electron avalanches, is that in a positive corona they are generated by the gas surrounding the plasma
Negative base For example, the numbers from 100 to 109 have the same representations in decimal and negadecimal. Similarly, and is represented by 10001 in binary and 10001 in negabinary. Some numbers with their expansions in a number of positive and corresponding negative bases are: Note that the base expansions of negative integers have an even number of digits, while the base expansions of the non-negative integers have an odd number of digits. The base expansion of a number can be found by repeated division by , recording the non-negative remainders of formula_3, and concatenating those remainders, starting with the last. Note
