The ball lightning there is a source of high density energy. Earlier observers found an abnormally high thermal yield when the ball lightning enters into the water tank under natural conditions. In
The second model proposed by Vladimir Bychkov assumed that the energy reservoir of ball lightning is polymer threads carrying a big electric charge. Our model assumes that the energy
ABSTRACT Ball lightning has been extensively reported, usually in association with thunder storms, by chance observers who constitute perhaps five percent of the adult u.S. popula tion.
Ball lightning is often reported as a ring current, in toroid shape, and since a spinning ring appears as a sphere or ball, the spinning plasma toroid provides an explanation for ball lightning. The
Ball lightning is an unexplained atmospheric phenomenon that is usually asso-ciated with thunderstorms and lasts considerably longer than the split-second flash of a lightning bolt. Ball
Abstract The energy and its source of ball lightning (BL) have long been a mystery. At present, there is no consensus on the energy source of BL. The radiation power
The energy density of a few lightning balls has been observed to be as high as 20 000 J/cm 3, well above the limit of chemical energy storage of, for example, TNT at 2000 J/cm
Thunderstorm charge-separation processes suggest a new class of electricity generators based on kinetic energy and material collision. Ball lightning suggests additional
The article describes the cases when ball lightning (BL) exhibited an extremely high specific energy store (up to 10¹⁰ J/m3), a presence of
Highlights • Calculations indicate that the formation, energy source and lifetime of Ball Lightning can be explained by the production of singlet delta metastable states of oxygen.
According to observations, the energy density contained inside ball lightning can reach 1010 J/m3, and its charge can range from 10−3 to 10−1 C. Witnesses often report

The analysis of modern models of ball lightning displays, that they are unsatisfactory on a series of tests. The model of ball lightning is offered, which exterior electronic envelope is retained by
The observational characteristics of ball lightning, as derived from eye-witness testimony and a small amount of objective evidence, are outlined. Limitations in the quality of
These contours are hard packed in a small volume of ball lightning, forming a multilayer capacitor containing a substantial charge and elec-trostatic energy. This paper provides calculations of

Dr. Chukanov states: "This prototype features a wide range of instrumental measurements and complex automation. The core of the generator contains the ball lightning, while circuitry and
Ball lightning is a rarely observed phenomenon whose existence is attested to by thousands of eyewitness reports, but which has so far evaded a widely accepted scientific explanation. This
8.Energy of the ball isone of the less well defined characteristics. However, there are numerous instances where a lightning ball came very close topeople without causing injury. 9.Damage is
The buoyant behavior of ball lightning seen in our experiments is believed to arise as a result of the formation of a nanoparticle oxide network growing from a molten silicon core.
Research has considered energy storage due to the high energy density that lightning appears to exhibit. If the mechanisms of ball
A plasmoid model for ball lightning is examined. The usual virial theorem shows that confinement by self-field alone is inconsistent with conservation laws for energy and momentum; a
Among these are the ways of energy storage in ball lightning, the mechanisms of thermal processes, the form and structure of ball lightning, and the electrical phenomena and

Highlights • Ball lightning is considered as a system of the positively charged core and dielectric shell. • The core is formed from electrons and protons, moving in closed orbits. •
If, indeed, a mode of existence of ball lightning with a minimum rate of energy loss is possible, then this significantly increases interest to it as a promising energy storage
Abstract Despite numerous attempts, an adequate theoretical and experimental simulation of ball lightning still remains incomplete. According to the model proposed here, the processes of
Summary form only given. Ball lightning is a natural phenomenon characterized by a glowing ball of light that forms outside in the open air and inside closed rooms, aircraft,
Ball lightning can have a diameter up to several meters, a lifetime of over 100 s, an energy content in excess of 10 MJ, and an energy density and a kinetic pressure greater than that of a reacting

The energy and its source of ball lightning (BL) have long been a mystery. At present, there is no consensus on the energy source of BL. The radiation power density and its evolution of a BL are investigated based on its spectra for the first time.
The electron-ion model describes not only ball lightning, but also bead lightning, which usually occurs when linear lightning disintegrates. Based on the known dimensions of the beads of bead lightning, it is possible to calculate the electric charge of a single bead and its magnetic field.
The theory successfully explains many properties of ball lightning. For the first time, we revel that ball lightning is an alarm signal of the existence of ultrastrong microwaves and abundantly hazardous electrons near the ground or aircraft. This result is of great significance for lightning protection and aviation safety.
The long-term stability of ball lightning is ensured by the balance of electric and magnetic forces. The electric force acting on the electrons from the positive volume charge of the ions is the centripetal force that holds the electrons in place as they rotate.
Oleg Meshcheryakov suggests that ball lightning is made of composite nano or submicrometer particles—each particle constituting a battery. A surface discharge shorts these batteries, causing a current that forms the ball. His model is described as an aerosol model that explains all the observable properties and processes of ball lightning.
Ball lightning has been described as transparent, translucent, multicolored, evenly lit, radiating flames, filaments or sparks, with shapes that vary between spheres, ovals, tear-drops, rods, or disks. Although they are separate and distinct phenomena, ball lightning is often erroneously identified as St. Elmo's fire.
