Desktop reproduction of Peratt's Stick Man?

Beyond the boundaries of established science an avalanche of exotic ideas compete for our attention. Experts tell us that these ideas should not be permitted to take up the time of working scientists, and for the most part they are surely correct. But what about the gems in the rubble pile? By what ground-rules might we bring extraordinary new possibilities to light? If you have a personal favorite theory, that is in someway related to the Electric Universe, this is where it can be posted.

Desktop reproduction of Peratt's Stick Man?

Unread post by LunarSabbathTruth » Sun Apr 25, 2021 3:27 am

Anthony Peratt used very high power in his lab experiments which produced the stick man plasma formation.

However, if plasma behavior is scalable, then it should be feasible to produce the stick man in a setting which requires much less power, say inside a
glass sphere like the popular toy. As far as I know, no one has done this.

Has there been any attempt at reproducing the stick man results with less electrical power than Peratt used?

It is scalable, but with a caveat: both the total current and total voltage should be the same in both the scaled-down and the original system.

What sort of power would that be?

Does the caveat (same total E and A) applies only to an \|original -> scaled-down|/ system or also to an \|original -> scaled-up|/ system?

Well, the current in auroral circuit is about 10^6 A, the voltage is around 10^4 V, so the power would be some tens of GW.
Then, if you want some extreme hypothetical aurorae of the past, you should increase the orders of magnitude accordingly.

So then, you can create the form of a nebula using a toy plasma ball, and you can create the form of lightning using a toy Tesla coil, but you cannot create the Peratt Stick Man with a modest lab device?

You can create anything you like if you scale the parameters properly.

What would be the minimum requirements to create a reproduction of Peratt's Stick Man?

The same total voltage and current.

The same total voltage and current.

In other words Peratt's Stick Man cannot be reproduced by any of the hobbyists/tinkerers/experimenters on YouTube.

It absolutely can if the scales and fields are set up right. Has anybody made it rain in a toy biosphere yet?

Has there ever been any independent confirmation of the stick man plasma? Do we have anything other than references to Peratt's computer simulations?

Is the simulation code available for study and testing?
