摘要：

An unusual event observed in laboratory conditions is described, i.e., the formation of secondary aerosol-plasma spheres of a primary plasmoid initiated by an electric discharge. Long-lived (0.1 s) secondary spherical aerosol-plasma formations of 3 cm in diameter have been observed over the water surface during electric discharges. This observation is important for the explanation of spherical lightning formation and electric discharges in aerosol-plasma structures. © 2012, Pleiades Publishing, Ltd.
