Ball Lightning? I think the '84 IEEE Tesla Symposium mentioned something
about suddenly swithing the primary current of a resonant three coil
Tesla
system 180 degrees out of phase. Ball lightning reportedly appears
between
the secondary and 'extra' coil under these conditions. In addition, it
has
been suggested that establishing ion acoustic resonant plasma
(collisionless) on the output electrode is a prerequisite to the
production
of ball lightning with Tesla coils.
