— The strong discharge pulse between coplanar electrodes in an ACPDP cell is investigated using fully kinetic 3‐D simulations. Key phases in the discharge development are identified and thoroughly illustrated with an extensive set of plots. The main effort is focused on the study of the anode charging wave and striations formed above the dielectric surface in the anode area. To elucidate these physical phenomena, we perform a number of specially designed numerical experiments.
