Plasma concentration discussions have been removed from the text because no such measurements have been made. The nature of the glow of the particles in Figure 3 corresponds to the glow of a micrometeorite that burns down in the Earth's atmosphere [13] and [http://galaxy.astron.kharkov.ua/statti/meteor.htm]. The brightness of the micrometeorite (the particle) glow increases towards the track’s end. This cannot be explained by an increase in the particle velocity, since the particle stops. This occurs after the voltage pulse action. We believe that an increase in the radiation intensity of the particle is due to its heating during deceleration on gas particles. The text of the article has been revised.
The article is more descriptive in nature, there is no explanation of physical laws, but which are misleading readers. For instance: Lines 168, 169 "An increase in the track brightness is apparently determined by an increase in the particle charge and size due to the evaporation of metal from the surface." One can agree with the influence of the particle size on the track size, but how can an increase in the particle charge affect the track glow? Lines 173-175 «Based on the brightness of the track glow, the plasma concentration at the particle surface increases with distance from the cathode.» Again, it is not clear how the plasma density on the particle surface can affect the brightness of the track glow. Such inaccuracies are found throughout the text.
