Synopsis "Artificial Ball Lightnings"
A survey of two century attempts to produce Ball Lightning in a laboratory with respect to understanding that Ball Lightning nature is optical one is presented. The Ball Lightning can be imagined as the soap bubble where the soap film is replaced by the film of strongly compressed air. The conventional white light is circulating in the film in all possible directions. The film shows itself as a planar wave guide the curvature of which is different from zero. The wave guide prevents the radiation of the light in free space. In turn, the light compresses the air due to the electrostriction pressure. This combination is closer to the light rather than to the lightning. We cut the tail in the world lightning and will call this combination by Ball Light. The energy of the light is essentially greater than that of the compressed air. In this case the behavior of the Ball Light is determined by the forces connected with the light rather than by the conventional forces connected with material particles. Said forces were considered in numerous hypotheses but all attempts to explain the mysterious behavior of the Ball Lightning failed. On the contrary, we have succeeded to explain all features of the Ball Lightning behavior on assumption that the forces between the light and matter play a decisive role. Our theory is mentioned in Wikipedia. All intriguing puzzles of the Ball Lightning behavior are explained in a natural way. We show in the book that puzzling anomalous ball-shaped formations obtained in 19 and begin of 20 centuries can be considered as the Ball Lights with small lifetime because they disappear immediately after ceasing a gas discharge. Objects with the lifetime of several seconds have been obtained in the second half of 20 century. Bearing in mind properties of the Ball Lights, anomalous properties of such objects are explained. An explanation is presented why an erosive gas discharge is favorable for production of the objects. A survey of up-to-date attempts of production of similar objects with the lifetime about 10 s is presented. Schemes of setups for production laboratory ball lightning with the great lifetime and stored energy comparable to natural ones are considered. We have shown that labaratory anomalous objects are not naturak Ball Lightning observed and described by eyewitnesses. But the anomalies of the natural Ball Lightnings and autonomous objects are explained by the same physical phenomenon connected with the circulation of the intensive light along side surface. Thus, a behaviour and properties of the considered autonomous objects confirms out optical theory of natural Ball Lightnings.
