RE: Long, Continuous, Steady Streamer Phenomena

I've noticed that the sound of these special streamers is much different 
than the normal ones - much more steady.  I wonder if the BPS is any less 
chaotic, or if this is strictly a streamer phenomenon?  Time to get out the 
storage scope...

Was wondering if anyone else had the following streamers at least with their
mini coils.  I find that every once in awhile if a streamer breaks out on an
extremely smooth portion of the toroid, that
the streamer will appear to remain in one (at least visibly)
steady-continuous streamer which seems to slightly "glide" across the toroid
surface.  These streamers typically live for up to 2-10 seconds at a time
and are EXTREMELY impressive looking compared to typical streamers.

Anyone know what the theory of action of these long-living streamers are????
I know Gary Laus minicoil frequently produces them as well as my mini coil
now.  However, I don't think I've ever seen
them occur on larger tesla coils.
