	U.S. Patent: 5539205 - Corona generating device and method of fabricating - July 23, 1996
		The corona generating device of claim 2, wherein said element comprises a conductive shield which substantially surrounds said corona discharge electrode and has a longitudinal opening therein to permit ions emitted from the electrode to be directed toward the surface to be charged.
		The corona generating device of claim 7, wherein said corona discharge electrode comprises a thin wire coated at least in the discharge area with a dielectric material, and said conductive shield has means associated therewith to connect to a potential source.
		In the conventional corona discharge device, the conductive corona electrode is also in the form of an elongated wire connected to a corona generating power supply and supported by end blocks with the wire being partially surrounded by a conductive shield which is usually electrically grounded.

	American AntiGravity - Corona and Wire Information
		The corona is a purple glow emitted from air-molecules that are excited by the high-voltage leakage current in the air-gap.
		The corona is a lossy effect, and the energy lost in producing the corona detracts from lifting thrust.
		The bright purple glow of the corona from the 30-gauge copper wire was captured using a 1-second shutter exposure.

	DayCor - A Dual-Spectrum Camera for Daytime Corona Detection (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-26)
		Corona and arcing activity, which may occur at numerous points on overhead transmission, substation, and distribution power systems, may result in audio noise (AN) or radio interference (RI) complaints or indicate a defective component that may be close to failure.
		Therefore, it is important that operators are capable of distinguishing between a benign corona source and one that indicates a defect.
		However since daytime corona inspection is a new technology, a considerable amount of research is necessary to correlate observed activity with defective components or benign sources.

	Celsus's Decircumcision Operation
		The operation would be easier in a boy than a man since there would be a greater proportion of skin to penis.
		Penn's procedure conforms to Celsus's first operation in all particulars except that he applies a free graft of skin to the raw area from the edge of the new prepuce to the base of the penis to prevent scarring and to facilitate healing.
		Unlike the restored prepuce of the first operation, the new covering of the glans is not exterior dermis, but the raw underside of a full-thickness tube of skin.

	CORONA Summary
		CORONA is the name for the first operational space photo reconnaissance satellite.
		The Corona vehicle was launched by a THOR booster and used the AGENA spacecraft as the upper stage.
		CORONA's payload was a vertical-looking, reciprocating, 70-degree panoramic camera developed by Itek that exposed Eastman Kodak film by scanning at right angles to the line of flight.

	Bert Corona: May 29, 1918 - January 15, 2001
		Several days later he endured another operation for renal failure and infection, which required a blood transfusion, and a third operation three days later was to replace his pacemaker.
		Corona left the Aranda de la Parra Hospital in the city of Leon to return to Los Angeles in medical transport and was immediately taken to Kaiser Permanente to receive medical attention by his personal physician.
		Corona is survived by his wife, Angelina Corona, his daughter, Margo De Ley, and sons, David, Frank, and Ernesto Corona, and three grandchildren, Baltie, Liza and Clare.

	Nuclear Structure Laboratory, FN Tandem Van de Graaff Accelerator
		The arm containing the corona point assembly is mounted to the tank wall directly opposite the terminal, so that the points can be extended toward or extracted away from the terminal.
		During accelerator operation, the corona points are moved close enough to the terminal so that a coronal discharge begins at the points, and this discharge causes charge to flow from the terminal through the corona points.
		When the accelerator is operating, the GVM is exposed to the electric field at the location of the terminal, and the capacitance of the GVM varies as the rotating vanes alternately cover and then expose the stationary metal vanes to the electric field.

	Cut With Glass \| PFFC \| March 2006
		Corona treatment is a process in which high-frequency electrical energy is used to create a corona discharge within a narrow gap.
		Many of the remaining unknowns regarding the operation of corona treaters are associated with the electrical properties of the treater roll and, more specifically, the treater roll covering.
		Therefore, to determine the equivalent operating point for the glass roll to give a receding contact angle of 40 deg, the watt density for the glass roll can be estimated by extrapolating, to 40 deg, the linear or the second order regression result for the glass roll (see Formula 1).
