This discovery was also the forerunner of modern day plasma physics.Īlthough Lichtenberg only studied 2-dimensional (2D) figures, modern high voltage researchers study 2D and 3D figures (electrical trees) on, and within, insulating materials. One day not too long ago somebody showed me the irregularities to be found at the Grand Canyon. By then pressing blank sheets of paper onto these patterns, Lichtenberg was able to transfer and record these images, thereby discovering the basic principle of modern Xerography. I OFFER the following report for the research community. 'You know nothing of me, and I know everything of you.' Jaghatai Khan.
The patterns created are known to be examples of fractals. Sometimes, the electrical discharge can leave a tattoo-like marking or scar known as a Lichtenberg figure. After discharging a high voltage point to the surface of an insulator, he recorded the resulting radial patterns in fixed dust. Being struck by lightning is a dangerous and scary experience and can even be fatal. In 1777, Lichtenberg built a large electrophorus to generate high voltage static electricity through induction. When they were first discovered, it was thought that their characteristic shapes might help to reveal the nature of positive and negative electric “fluids”.
They are named after the German physicist Georg Christoph Lichtenberg, who originally discovered and studied them. Sometimes, this steam explosion even blows off people’s clothes or shoes, leaving them nearly naked.Lichtenberg figures are branching electric discharges that sometimes appear on the surface or the interior of insulating materials. Or rapidly vaporize the sweat or rain on your skin. The insane temperatures can also heat up any metal you’re wearing, causing third-degree burns. These lightning strike scars are the earlier mentioned Lichtenberg figures. Unfortunately for men, lightning can also induce impotence and decrease libido in general.Īs the lightning moves toward the surface of the body, it can force red blood cells out of your capillaries, into your epidermis like a bruise. For example, it can bore holes in your retina and cause cataracts, a clouding of the lenses. The caption alongside the photo reads: If you are lucky enough to survive a lightning strike, this is what your body will look like. The blistering heat, light, and electricity can also damage your eyes. The photo, which has been shared more than 13,000 times, shows a person’s back layered with thin jagged streaks and what appear to be purple and yellow bruises. Its a fractal thats caused by the water in cells boiling and causing said cells to burst. Lightning can melt movable components like pistons, wheel bearing, etc. The lightning surge can fry the electrical system. Below are the things that can happen to a car outside that is hit by lightning: Lightning can light up the car. This can lead to cardiac arrest, seizures, brain injury, spinal cord damage, and amnesia. Thats sometimes referred to as Lightning Flower. This claim is not always true, depending on the striking intensity. When the lightning enters your body, it short-circuits the small electrical signals that run the heart, lungs, and nervous system. It’s terrifying to imagine what this amount of energy in a lightning strike could do to a human. T-shirts, posters, stickers, home decor, and more, designed and sold by independent artists. A lightning bolt can heat the surrounding air to 50,000 degrees Fahrenheit (27,760 degrees Celsius) – which is five times hotter than the sun – and can contain up to 1 billion volts of electricity.
