Does this same phenomena occur under vacuum and/or Argon atmosphere?
Has anyone every tried exploding a wire in an atmosphere free from water vapor? I.e. either vacuum or under Argon atmosphere. I'm very intrigued by the description of this as a "source of high-intensity light". 22:25, 17 August 2018 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by 172.58.139.2 (talk)
 * I found a 50-year-old study of a side-by-side experiment showing significantly more current/power required to explode a wire under vacuum than under atmosphere. Exploding wires in air and vacuum, Zeitschrift für Physik, B. Stenerhag, S. K. Händel, I. Holmström1, 967, DOI 10.1007/BF01326904. I think this quite interesting that atmosphere appears to facilitate a plasma that excites the explosion at a lower power threshold. Ronnotel (talk) 01:09, 18 August 2018 (UTC)
