Abstract
Mechanisms which may act as secondary processes in the streamer breakdown of isotropic gases and air are considered. In the case of air it is shown that mechanisms connected with the collisions of excited oxygen molecules with ground-state nitrogen and oxygen molecules play the primary role.Keywords
