How hypergravity impacts electric arcs

Wednesday, December 18, 2013 - 12:05 in Physics & Chemistry

A new study on electric discharge behavior under intense gravitational forces shows that its dynamic changes as gravity increases. Arc discharges are common in everyday conditions like welding or in lightning storms. But in altered gravity, not as much is known about the behavior of electric discharges.
