    "abstract": "Space-charge dominated streamer discharges can emerge in free space from\nsingle electrons. We reinvestigate the Raether-Meek criterion and show that\nstreamer emergence depends not only on ionization and attachment rates and gap\nlength, but also on electron diffusion. Motivated by simulation results, we\nderive an explicit quantitative criterion for the avalanche-to-streamer\ntransition both for pure non-attaching gases and for air, under the assumption\nthat the avalanche emerges from a single free electron and evolves in a\nhomogenous field.",
