It does not. Coronal discharge requires electrically neutral gas to be present for the phenomenon to develop.
No, it does not.
". . . with electric discharges in very high vacuum where the current is carried by particles of one sign only (unipolar discharges) and where the carriers of the electric current pass across the vacuous space from one electrode (emitter) to another electrode (collector) without suffering loss of energy or change in momentum by collisions with gas molecules [it is unnecessary] to consider the generation of ions and electrons by collisions with gas molecules, [or] the recombination of ions and electrons.

Why is this even in Science and Technology?
Shouldn't this be in Skunkworks?

Don't be mad that I'm presenting real science while you are peddling science fiction.

I noticed you didn't answer my question.
You're real good at ad homs; however, you suck at science.

Time is not a spatial dimension, it is an abstract concept.

I answered your question.
You may not like the answer, but I certainly answered it.
I also understand Einstein's relativity enough to know its completely detached from reality.
Claiming I'm simply too dumb to understand is a ridiculous argument akin to "the emperors new clothes."
I fully understand what is going on, and I fully disagree with it.

I noticed you didn't answer my question.
I asked you to explain why this should be so, and why I should believe a model that uses a ton of hypothetical ON TOP of violating the laws of KNOWN physics over a model that does neither.

Jurgens writes:
On the average, measurements show that most of these detected electrons are moving neither inward nor outward. Parker's model requires that a like number of electrons and ions drift outward, constituting the electrically neutral solar wind. Here, we require that an inward flux of 3000 relativistic electrons per cubic meter pervades the background of 9 to 11 million electrons per cubic meter which occupy, but do not flow through, the space between the planets of the solar system.
On this basis, we are at least partially justified in supposing that the negative glow of the solar discharge cannot be located outside the Sun's atmosphere. Since the negative glow is the first true plasma region to be encountered as we proceed from the cathode of a glow discharge toward the anode, the interplanetary plasma may be tentatively assigned this role without straining the self-consistency in the model.(23)
Thus it would appear that, if but one in about every 3,000 electrons near the Earth turned out to be a current carrier moving at almost the speed of light toward the Sun, the power delivered would be enough to keep the Sun "burning" at its present rate. This seems a rather subtle stream but it would suffice to power the Sun.
Out of 9 to 11 million electrons, only 3000 per cubic meter need to be part of the current.
The rest of the electrons are held in a quasineutral state with the positive ions.
The inter-planetary plasma is a transmission wire, it is not a power source.
Jurgens postulates that these electrons are moving at relativistic speeds. This would further hinder their detection. It wouldn't surprise me if deep space detectors saw these electrons as "cosmic rays."
