Abstract：Using the method of OES (optical emission spectrum) for measuring N2 emission spectrum, the distribution of the energetic electrons in multi-needle-to-plate positive corona discharge at atmospheric pressure was investigated, and compared with that in negative corona discharge. According to the distribution of N2 second positive band’s intensity ISPB, the outline of the ionization region in glow discharge and the streamer channel were drawn rather accurately. The relationship between ISPB and the discharge current I in glow discharge can be obtained through the volume integral of the ISPB. In glow discharge, both the ionization region scale and ISPB are smaller than in negative corona discharge, the electron avalanche develops farther along the radius direction of needle than along axis direction, and only the arrange along axis direction is enhanced slightly with the rise of the applied voltage U. The integral of ISPB is second order linear to I. In streamer discharge, the discharge channels develop from needlepoint to the plate, while the shape of the region in which ISPB is higher looks like a bullet. The density of energetic electron in the channel farther away from the needlepoint is relatively uniform along the axis direction, but first increases then decreases along the radius direction.
