THE NEW HYPOTHESIS OF THE NATURE OF BALL LIGHTNING. EXPLANATION OF THE EXTRAORDINARY PROPERTIES

Based on the analysis of the experimental facts and several years observation a new hypothesis of ball lightning was proposed. The hypothesis is based on emulons – the new structures discovered in water – and the formation of dendrometers by hydrated ions of hydrogen Н+ and hydroxyl OH- . The ball lightning of diameter 20cm have mass 14g, density ρ=0,0033g/cm3 (at 2,7>ρ air), energy≈1700 kJ. The energy of ball lightning is providing by recombination reactions of free radicals and ions in the gas phase.
