Hello Lightning Tamers!
Video made by Alan Sailer, showing some plasma effects he had played with. He’s done some amazing photography projects using high speed cameras, you can see those as well as other plasma videos on this Flickr page linked below! -Percy | Taming Lightning |
“This globe (1000ml) was a complete surprise. After having great success with filling several green globes I decided that I wanted a large pure xenon globe. I run voltage on the plasma tubes when I am filling them but it only gives me an idea how things will look after I seal the globe and mount it. The fact that the globe is connected to a grounded metal vacuum system tends to distort the plasma effects.
After sealed and mounted this globe I was surprised to see a faint green spider that grew “legs” as the voltage went higher. It looks just like the spikes on ferrofluid with a magnetic field applied and I’d bet the physics is analogous.
This globe has 50 torr of xenon.“

A series of videos and maybe still photos showing my efforts to make plasma objects.
