Abstract: The relation between electrical recovery time and the increase of gas density after a primary spark was experimentally studied in an argon discharge. For this purpose single photos were taken by soft x-ray flashes in the direction of the discharge channel at different moments after the argon discharge. The absorption of x-rays and therefore the density of gas was recorded by a film behind the electrodes. The radial distribution of gas density in the channel was obtained from the film by photometry. By this method the density of gas in the channel was determined at times from a few microseconds up to 1.5 msec after the discharge. Thereby the density of gas was found to be in direct relation to the electric recovery of the spark.
