The glowing clouds are,
Material blown away by the supernova explosion is said to be streaming at enormous speed past the other stars that were close by when the giant stellar mass collapsed and then rebounded, throwing its outer layers into space. �
Does that explanation correspond to
observations? How is it that explosions inside clouds of hot gas
create X-rays? � Could charge separation also take place in the short circuit discharges known as supernova remnants? That question might require centuries to answer, since the only way to detect a double layer in space is by flying a probe through one. � However, everywhere in our own Solar System cellular structures separated by double layers abound:
� As Electric Universe theory states, a supernova is an exploding star, but not in the conventional sense. � Rather, it constitutes the explosion of a double layer in plasma. Star power comes from external electric currents flowing through vast circuits in space, so the radiation and �wind� from stars are due to arc discharges that vary in strength. �
It is those electric arcs that make up the stellar corona, chromosphere and photosphere of our Sun, for instance. �
The result is the same as an unintended
circuit break in an earthly power grid where the stored
electromagnetic energy in the entire circuit is suddenly focused at
one point. �
The various infrared wavelengths emitted
from those atomic collisions correlate to their temperature.
However, most radiant energy in space is synchrotron radiation
produced by electrons as they travel through a magnetic field. �
The X-ray radiation is typical of that
given off by highly excited stars, indicating extremely strong
electrical stress. � |
