The production of condensation nuclei by a negative point-plane corona discharge is discussed in the light of experimental results in which the occurrence of 'large' ions of low mobility, the concentrations of condensation nuclei and the identification of ionic species by mass spectrometer, have been separately studied. It is concluded that the nuclei occur mainly in the outer regions of the discharge.
