Jacobs ladder, Picket Fence aurora, STEVE’s ladders or Kristian Birkeland’s plasma stairways to the electromagnetic heavens? Depending on your point of view, literally, the green picket fence type STEVE might be interpreted or seen as a ladder or stairway above you and going up to heaven. Jacob left Beersheba and set out for Harran. When …
Steve the newly recognised aurora plasma phenomenon or Steve Birkeland (current)? Steve the scalable Kristian Birkeland filament? If plasma phenomena are scalable then is planet Earth Steve a variation of those observed in our solar system and galaxy? In the future Steve should be found to be part of Earth’s electromagnetic circuit with the Sun, …
What are Birkeland plasma helical filaments, his field aligned electric sheets of currents, how are they formed and what scalable structures do they help create and power in this electromagnetic universe? As dusty plasmas move through electromagnetic fields this creates forces that define the evolving shapes. Willard Harrison Bennett pinches, plasma double layers, Birkeland sheets and spiralling filaments appear to not only connect and shape galactic formations, they also provide natural electrical energy through potential differences of plasmas and electrochemical elements.
Plasma double layers – also known as a Langmuir plasma sheath, Langmuir sheath, plasma sheath – information, descriptions etc. Also includes Debye sheaths. More will be added as found. You can read more about Irving Langmuir, Hannes Alfvén and Kristian Birkeland. Double layers (plasma sheaths) A plasma formation by which a plasma protects itself from …
Kristian Birkeland (Kristian Olaf Bernhard Birkeland) – plasma researcher and scientist – one of the first to really investigate space plasma. It seems to be a natural consequence of our point of view to assume that the whole of space is filled with electrons and flying ions of all kinds. We assume each stellar system …
