Main results of researches of the electric erosive discharge afterglow plasma, of the fireballs being formed by this plasma and having some particular but deep similarities to the ball lightning are given. The analysis of our results and…
The special form of an electric discharge - "burn-through" in regard to the ball lightning problem has been considered. Having been carried out within closed volume, this mode of erosive discharge has shown the series of clear differences…
A simple model is applied to study a high temperature rather dense plasma ball. It is assumed that the ions and delocalized electrons are distributed uniformly throughout the ball, and extra/missing charge is found in a thin layer on the…
New non-stationary non-contracted form of the erosive radially-slotted discharge as a thin round sheet with the current of the azimuth direction have been discovered, its existence beings stipulated by a radial transport-wave fluxes.…
The ball lightning is supposed to be a shock wave of a point explosion frozen with electrostriction forces of the internal strong laser discharge. The life time of the ball with modest parameters is calculated.
The non-stationary mode of radial-slotted erosive discharge was considered. The existence condition of the relatively steady multiarc regime has been found. Experimentally it has been shown that this discharge has been corresponding to the…
Ball lightning is an impressive natural electromagnetic phenomenon occurring in atmosphere under suitable circumstances. Its origin, composition and stability issues are a matter of debate, due to presence of many evidences still…
Physical conditions of formation of the ball lightning with high energy density considered as condensate of heavily excited atoms have been studied. In our approach the ball lightning formation processes is considered as a form of…
We present a comprehensive theory on the formation of ball lightning, a luminous sphere sometimes observed after normal lightning. In a ball lightning event, a relativistic electron bunch can be produced by the stepped leader of lightning…
We study small random perturbations by additive space-time white noise of a reaction-diffusion equation with a unique stable equilibrium and solutions which blow up in finite time. We show that for initial data in the domain of attraction…
We suggest that the ball lightning (BL) is a weakly ionized gas, in which the electromagnetic radiation can be accumulated through the Bose-Einstein condensation and/or the photon trapping in the plasma density well. We derive the set of…
Ball lightning is a very rarely observed phenomenon that makes it extremely difficult to characterize scientifically. Eye-witness accounts of ball lightning that describe many features in common have been variously recorded for centuries.…
The impact and rupture of water-filled balloons upon a flat, rigid surface is studied experimentally, for which three distinct stages of the flow are observed. Due to the impact, waves are formed on the balloon's surface for which the…
The ballistic impact of various dense particle suspensions is of interest for the development of superior materials for personal protective equipment. The dynamic response of the fluids under impact of a fragment simulating projectile at…
The role of the electron diffusion on the stability of a Townsend discharge is investigated. It is obtained, that electron diffusion modifies the condition of the steady self-sustenance of the discharge, and make discharge unstable.
We study small random perturbations by additive white-noise of a spatial discretization of a reaction-diffusion equation with a stable equilibrium and solutions that blow up in finite time. We prove that the perturbed system blows up with…
After centuries, the long-standing problem of the nature of ball lightning may be closer to a solution. The relativistic-microwave theory of ball lightning recently proposed by Wu accounts for many of the leading characteristics of ball…
One-dimensional model for study of sub--femtosecond experiment with metal surface is put forward. The important features of the system, such as the pseudopotential for electron motion in the metal bulk, abrupt decrease of the normal to the…
In the superconducting medium the circular current supported by its own magnetic field can exist giving rise to the possible underlying mechanism for the ball lightning.
The phenomenon of ball lightning has been observed for a long time, but the nature of these luminous balls has been unknown. It is proposed here that they consist of highy excited Rydberg atoms with large polarizabilities that bind them…
