Scientists finally admit plasma is responsible for magnetic fields in space!

Saw this yesterday..

PLasmare, I need some help, if you could. It concerns the e-mail exchange you and Peratt had. Would he verify in any way what he said to you in that e-mail where he admits the plasma is inner heliosphere?

Do you think if you or I e-mailed him currently, he would respond with the same answer?

if plasma is the 4 state of matter where does it fall in line with gas, liquid, solid?

what i mean is H20 goes from ice, to water, to water vapor
when is it a plasma?

Plasma is charged matter. Electricity can never be seen without magnetism. We are always talking about electromagnetic fields.

And its the planets that emit these electromagnetic pulses

God: "Baffling isn't it? "

Scientists: "Baffling? In fact it's downright bewildering, along with those Snowy Owls."

They've recently launched a new satellite
to study "plasma waves" so the boffin's are
definitely studying it closely.

From 25th Jan...

"Before Progress 45 burned up on Tuesday it deployed a novel miniature satellite called Chibis-M. The 88-pound (40-kg) microsatellite was released in an orbit that is slight higher than that of the International Space Station. It is expected to spend several years studying how plasma waves interact with Earth's ionosphere, NASA officials said."

What do you mean IF, it simply is a state of matter... Heat something enough and you will break the bonds and create free electrons and turn any matter into plasma or just use ionizing radiation.

Plasma is by far the most common form of matter known. Plasma in the stars and in the tenuous space between them make up over 99% of the visible universe and perhaps most of that which is not visible. On earth we live upon an island of "ordinary" matter. The different states of matter found on earth are solid, liquid, and gas. We have learned to work, play, and rest using these states of matter. Sir William Crookes, an English physicist, identified another, more fundamental, state of matter in 1879. In 1929, Nobel Laureate Irving Langmuir gave this state a name, plasma. He borrowed the term from medical science because the matter with which he worked resembled life itself. It formed cells through bifurcation and often acted in a complicated and unpredictable manner. Plasma is defined as an assemblage of charged particles called electrons and ions that react collectively to forces exerted by electric and magnetic fields.

Given its nature, the plasma state is characterized by a complexity that vastly exceeds that exhibited in the solid, liquid, and gaseous states. Correspondingly, the study of the physical and especially the electrodynamical properties of plasma forms one of the most far ranging and difficult research areas in physics today. From spiral galaxies to controlled fusion, this little-known state of matter, the fundamental state, is proving to be of ever greater significance in explaining the dynamics of the universe and in harnessing the material world for the greatest technological result.

"Cosmic dust can, in the presence of plasma, create formations known as plasma crystals. An international team of researchers published a study in the Aug.14, 2007, issue of the New Journal of Physics (PDF here [link to iopscience.iop.org] abstract here [link to iopscience.iop.org] that indicates that these crystals may be more sophisticated than anyone realized. In simulations involving cosmic dust, the researchers witnessed the formation of plasma crystals displaying some of the elementary characteristics of life -- DNA-like structure, autonomous behavior, reproduction and evolution."

When plasma comes into contact with a dust cloud, dust particles gather an electric charge by sucking up electrons from the surrounding plasma. This core of electrons in turn pulls in positively charged ions, forming plasma crystals. In the scientists' simulations, which were performed on the International Space Station and in a zero-gravity environment at a German research facility, the plasma crystals sometimes developed into corkscrew shapes or even the double-helix shape of DNA. These helix-shaped crystals retain an electric charge and show what the researchers called a self-organizing ability.

"So they form DNA-like shapes, reproduce, pass on their structure or genetic code, "eat" plasma, evolve and die."

"Complex plasmas may naturally self-organize themselves into stable interacting helical structures that exhibit features normally attributed to organic living matter."

"Its life Captain, but not as we know it."

Hold on a minute here - Astromut has shat all over this electric universe stuff.....could this mean - gasp - that Astro is wrong?

I don't know, I haven't heard anything from him since he sent me a default press release statement. The strange thing is he said there's a dense plasma already within the solar system but did not elaborate when I asked about it. The last email I received was that press release about the Norway spiral. My hotmail account with the emails has been shut down but I have already copied the emails over on these forums in several posts.

There is no "inner" heliosphere, you mean inner solar system and the only thing he stated was that a dense plasma has entered the solar system. I sent him another email recently asking some question but also have no heard from him. A day or two after the email exchange this happened;

(Newser) – Nuclear researchers at Los Alamos National Laboratory accidentally blew up part of a building this week while testing a gun that acts like a Civil War cannon, according to documents obtained by the Project on Government Oversight. Nobody was injured in the incident, but sources say the bill for the damage will top $3 million, Gawker reports.

"Researchers heard a loud, unusual noise from Technical Area 15, Building 562 after firing a shot from a large-bore powder gun," a Los Alamos occurrence report states. "Outside, they observed that two doors had been blown off the facility and concrete shielding blocks on the west and east side of the building were separated from the wall."

He may not even be alive or willing to talk about anything now.
