Abstract
It is pointed out that the simulation presented by Morrow and Blackburn for the 40 cm propagation of a positive streamer in a 50 cm point-to-plane air gap probably is seriously in error due to the neglect of gas heating and subsequent gas density reduction in the streamer channel. Also, the connection is established between the propagating high-field region of the simulated streamer and the well-known secondary streamer phenomenon caused by the Douglas-Hamilton and Mani attachment instability.
