Curiosities, corona-discharge, fields, and light
Corona-Discharge
- What if you sealed a pointed object in a hollow vacuum chamber( to a very very low pressure ), would the point still glow in thunderstorm conditions, since there would be no atmosphere to conduct/connect up to the sky .
- If the point would still glow, then maybe it may put into question about what causes Corona-discharge .
Build Up Of An Electromagnetic-Field or Electric-Field or Magnetic-Field, In A Sealed Diamagnetic-? or Dielectric-? Container ( like a box or a sphere )
- For example, what if you had a hollow box or a sphere made of copper, and completely sealed ( maybe no atmosphere, a vacuum inside of it maybe ? ) it, and before sealing it, you placed a strong-permanent-magnet( maybe encased in rubber to prevent it from shattering ) inside of the container, the magnet free to roll around, and then seal the container, and then you kept shaking the container to generate electromagnetic-eddies/fields, what would eventually happen, since the electromagnetic-eddies-fields inside of the container would continually build up .
- I'm guessing one possibility is that an electric-charge would build up on the copper container, but I wonder if there could be other possibilities .
Light Sealed In A Mirrored Container
- What if you made a hollow sphere or box of glass ( maybe no atmosphere, a vacuum inside of it maybe ? ), and lower it into liquid mercury while shining a strong laser into it, until the sphere or box is under the surface of the mercury, and then raise the sphere or box, would light come out ?
- I'm guessing no light would come out, since there is probably no 100% reflective material .
- Some time ago I had read about this experiment being done with some type of virtual-mirror, maybe the container was made of electromagnetic-field-surfaces ( not solid-matter-surfaces ), and the light used was probably some specific-frequency electromagnetic-waves, and the result was that the light-? did infact come out when the container was opened ( maybe powered off or something ), although apparently the light-? could only be stored for a limited amount of time .
( In the description of that experiment, done in the last 10 years or something, they did describe it as light. I cannot find that test now . )
