2. Plasma Scalability [Journals] [Aeon]
... From: Aeon Volume VI, Number 6 Home | Issue Contents Forum Plasma Scalability Anthony L. Peratt from the University of California, Los Alamos National Laboratory, Plasma Physics Group, Thermonuclear Applications Group, writes: The previous issue of Aeon (Volume VI, Number 5) contains a most informative and insightful article entitled "Prelude to Creation" by Dwardu Cardona. While one can hardly argue with the logical sequence of information presented, I see a need to elucidate on the topic of plasma scaling. Cardona cites a possible pitfall raised by S. W. Carey who states that a small correction (to the scaling) may become significant, even when the length or ...

From: SIS Internet Digest 1999:2 (Oct 1999) Home | Issue Contents Plasma, Plasma, Everywhere http://science.nasa.gov/newhome/headlines/ast07sep99_1 .htm Plasma is not a gas, liquid, or solid - it is the fourth state of matter. Plasma often behaves like a gas, except that it conducts electricity and is affected by magnetic fields. On an astronomical scale, plasma is common. The Sun is composed of plasma, fire is plasma, and fluorescent lights contain plasma. "99.9 percent of the Universe is made up of plasma," says Dr. Dennis Gallagher, a plasma ...

... From: SIS C & C Review 2004:1 Incorporating Workshop 2004:2 (May 2004) Home | Issue Contents News from the Internet In December 2003, an article quietly appeared in the IEEE publication Transactions on Plasma Science called "Characteristics for the Occurrence of a High-Current, Z-Pinch Aurora as recorded in Antiquity" by Dr Anthony L. Peratt, from Los Alamos National Laboratory, Los Alamos, NM. The article concludes that petroglyphs (or rock art) often represent a plasma "instability" that Peratt sees in his laboratory, and must have been seen by ancient man in the skies. Peratt's research was inspired by Dave Talbott, author the Saturn Myth, ...
7. The Photosphere: Is It the Top or the Bottom of the Phenomenon We Call the Sun? [Journals] [Kronos]
... out of its way to camouflage its activities. Suppose, then, that we put aside our preconceptions of whatever may be happening within the Sun and look to the visible evidence. As we emerge from the unseeable depths into the light of the solar atmosphere, the first region we come to is the photosphere - a white-hot envelope of hot plasma that gives off practically all the radiant energy we think of as sunshine. Here is where the Sun could well be expected to "end," if indeed the dissipation of internally generated energy were basic to the maintenance of its mechanical equilibrium, as the accepted theory claims. Yet the photosphere in no way ends the Sun; rather ...
8. To Begin the World Over Again [Journals] [Aeon]
... From: Aeon Volume VI, Number 5 Home | Issue Contents To Begin the World Over Again Mel Acheson It has taken a long time for us to "make sense" of plasma phenomena. Except for the occasional flashes of lightning from clouds and sparks from cat fur, we just don't think of plasma in nature. Human senses don't detect electric or magnetic fields. Because we sense nothing, we assume nothing is there. Our nerves are connected in ways that organize our sensorimotor signals into intelligible gestalts, and the categories and concepts that emerge from this activity are circumscribed by what is sensible. [1 ] No sensory input results in no conceptual output, and so ...

... have subsequently been validated by observation. The successes claimed by the theory's supporters consist of its ability to retrospectively fit observations with a steadily increasing array of adjustable parameters, just as the old Earth-centered cosmology of Ptolemy needed layer upon layer of epicycles. Yet the big bang is not the only framework available for understanding the history of the universe. Plasma cosmology and the steady-state model both hypothesize an evolving universe without beginning or end. These and other alternative approaches can also explain the basic phenomena of the cosmos, including the abundances of light elements, the generation of large-scale structure, the cosmic background radiation, and how the redshift of far-away galaxies increases with distance. They have even predicted ...

Birkeland currents run from the central cylindrical conductor to the outer concentric cylindrical conductor and they space themselves equally so that it looks like radiant streamers. The streamers can rotate, giving various swastika and whirling effects. The streamers follow the field lines, which in the polar configuration curve away from Venus towards Saturn. So, the appearance of Venus from Earth as a radiant flower or 8-fold star ...

14. Forum: Electric Universe [Journals] [SIS Review]
... negatively charged solar wind ejected from a negatively charged Sun (p . 448). There are, to a high degree of precision, equal numbers of electrons and protons in the solar wind. It is not the electrons that are being accelerated away from the Sun but the protons. The electrons tag along to maintain quasi-neutrality of the solar plasma. Laszlo demonstrates his confused notion of neutral plasma by suggesting that it would not respond to the Earth's magnetic field. That is simply not so: a complex response to electric and magnetic fields is the primary distinction between the neutral plasma state and the three other (neutral) states of matter - solid, liquid and gas. Neither ...
15. On Cosmic Electricity [Journals] [Pensee]
... and can get oneself very confused worrying about distortions of these lines during conjunctions, if one insists on trying to understand classical celestial mechanics on that basis. Juergens' answer to my point (2 ), at the beginning of his reply to my comments, again exhibits very clearly a gross misunderstanding. He writes: "Suppose the interplanetary plasma in the vicinity of the earth has electric potential V1. Suppose also that the earth's total electric charge Q is such that Q = Q1+ Q2, where Q1 alone would invest the earth with potential V1." He then goes on to accuse me of assuming implicitly and unjustifiably that Q1 = 0. And I did assume, ...
16. The Electric Universe [Journals] [SIS Review]
... than forward from some idealised theoretical beginning. The Electric Universe takes full account of the basic electrical nature of atoms and their interactions. In conventional cosmology, it is the weaker magnetism and the almost infinitely weak force of gravity which rule the cosmos. The Electric Universe grew out of an interdisciplinary approach to science and the realisation that a new plasma cosmology and an understanding of electrical phenomena in space could illuminate work being done in comparative mythology. By using information from a wide span of human existence and knowledge, the Electric Universe can provide answers to many questions that seem unrelated. For example, records of the prehistoric sky can help unravel the recent history of the planets and the ...
17. On Celestial Mechanics [Journals] [Pensee]
... important and challenging problems. Nevertheless, I have serious misgivings about the soundness of the arguments and of the author's competence to tackle such difficult investigations. Let me make a number of points, of very varying significance, from rather minor or even trivial to severely critical. 1) The author says that the discovery of the existence of interplanetary plasma "invalidated the argument that the planets, if electrically charged, would perturb one another in most obvious ways" (Pensée, fall, 1972, p.6 ). Again: in a vacuous interplanetary medium .. . planetary charges must give rise to electric fields detectable by their influences upon planetary motions" (p . 7 ...

... a glitch of such relative inconsequence as to be of questioned reality - might produce the Velikovsky effect- a glitch whose magnitude makes it apparent to nearly every inhabitant of the Earth. Qualitatively, a flare-induced gain of charge by the Earth may be understood in terms of probe theory. The Earth, as a material body immersed in the interplanetary plasma, is fully analogous to an experimental probe immersed in a laboratory plasma. And if solar flares are essentially electric discharges, as numerous investigators have suggested,(11) it is only to be expected that they will affect the electrical balance between Probe Earth and its environment. Loeb points out that localized disturbances (discharges) in a ...
19. Plasma Cosmology Comes Of Age [Journals] [Aeon]
... From: Aeon Volume VI, Number 5 Home | Issue Contents Plasma Cosmology Comes Of Age Tania ta Maria Taking his cue from heretical plasma physicists and such outcasts as Halton Arp, the theoretical physicist Brian Hills is not only questioning the current model of planet formation, but propounding an alternative model which is much in keeping with the current Saturn thesis. Hills' hypothesis, which is not actually new, is that planets are created through the ejection of plasma out of a proto-sun. Among other observational support, he points to the T-Tauri proto-stars which are currently seen to be ejecting thin "jets" of plasma with proto-planetary condensations along their length. As he points out, ...
20. Waves in Dusty Space Plasmas [Journals] [SIS Internet Digest]
... From: SIS Internet Digest 2000:2 (Dec 2000) Home | Issue Contents Waves in Dusty Space Plasmas www.wkap.nl/book.htm/0-7923-6232-2 Waves in Dusty Space Plasmas by Frank Verheest, Sterrenkundig Observatorium, Universiteit Gent, Belgium, Volume 245 of Astrophysics and Space Science Library. In this volume a thorough review is given of waves in dusty plasmas, a fascinating new domain combining plasmas and charged dust, two omnipresent ingredients of the Universe. Spokes and braids observed in the rings of Saturn cannot be explained by gravitation alone, but need the presence of charged dust. Other examples abound, as in zodiacal light, noctilucent clouds, comets and ...
21. News from the Internet [Journals] [SIS Review]
... . 6, Aug. 1988, p. 405-408. Abstract: The hypothesis of Bostick (1957) and Laurence (1956) concerning the formation of barred-spiral galaxies which become coherent self-exciting homopolar generators has been recently supported by three-dimensional particle-in-cell computer simulations. Such galaxies should be able to convert an appreciable fraction of the energy from their gravitationally collapsing plasmas to coherently increasing magnetic energy via their coherent self-exciting homopolar-generator action. A simple calculation is presented here to show that the resulting mutually induced magnetic repulsions between neighboring galaxies are greater than the gravitational attractive forces between the galaxies. The observed expansion of the universe can be thus simply accounted for without recourse to the Big Bang hypothesis. Title: ...
22. The Electric Universe: Slide Presentation & Notes by Wallace Thornhill [Journals] [Aeon]
... Reviewed by Amelia Acheson Thornhill's presentation offers a visual invitation to toss aside the straightjacket of paradigm paralysis and to explore the Solar System from an electric point of view. He covers an enormous range of phenomena, from subatomic particles through stellar evolution, floodlighting our understanding of the universe with insights garnered from mythical symbols, space probes, and the plasma physics lab. As an illustration, let me compare the received explanation re the tail of Halley's Comet with Thornhill's electric account, both presented in light of photographs returned by the ESA spacecraft Giotto in March, 1986. The standard theory has it that: "Comets grow tails only when they get warm enough for ice and dust to ...
23. Comparing Magnetic Fields: Neptune and Uranus [Journals] [Velikovskian]
... Venus has a strong bow shock. When the solar wind intercepts the Moon, or an asteroid, it is absorbed by the surface rock. When it interacts with planets having atmospheres or magnetic fields, or [with] a planetary ionosphere, [such as Venus']...a shock front forms which deflects the solar wind plasma around the obstacle, slows it down and heats it. Observations at Venus show that an ionosphere can be an efficient deflector of the solar wind and, here too, a strong bow shock is formed. (13) Russell indicates that "[ t ]he Venus bow shock was detected on the Venera 4 and 6 and Mariner ...

25. The Big Bang Never Happened [Journals] [SIS Workshop]
... sic). Lerner mentions some particular sources that have been important to him for this book. He singles out Elaine Pagels' Adam, Eve and the Serpent and conversations with Hannes Alfven, Tony Peratt and Ilya Prigogine. Much of the earlier part of the book is concerned with a possible alternative to Big Bang Cosmology. This he calls Plasma Cosmology', largely based on the work of Hannes Alfven, a Swedish plasma physicist, who has extended his ideas from research on nuclear fusion power containment to the solar system, the galaxy and finally cosmology. This is the section that members of the SIS may well find of interest. Perhaps unfortunately from our point of view, ...
