There are many reports collected and analysed today on observations of long-lived large-scale plasmoids in atmosphere and under water [1- 3]. These events were reported by military sailors, pilots and radar specialists. Typical characteristics and parameters of these plasmoids are the follows:

  • Diameter3-10 m,
  • Colourred, orange, silver, rainbow
  • Cruise velocity in air 2-4 kmps,
  • Cruise velocity in water300 kmph
  • Altitude 10-20 km
  • Depth0- 10 km
  • Life time0,1- 10 hour

Many of these plasmoids are invisible in radio-frequency range for external probing EM radiation. For example, radar couldn’t record some of these plasmoids.

There is a strong electromagnetic impact of these plasmoids onboard electronic equipment arranged on flight or sea vehicles.

Analysis of published reports on long-lived large-scale plasmoids in atmosphere and under water and theoretical estimations of plasmoid’s parameters are made.

Experimental realization of the artificial plasmoid in laboratory conditions and studies of its physical properties [4] is considered in this work also.

It is interesting to note that artificial and natural plasmoids have close physical properties.

It is revealed that artificial the cluster plasmoid created by HF discharge can absorb external EM radiation in wide wave range (from UV range up to MW range). This long-lived plasmoid has a high electric surface potential which is up to 10 kV. So, this plasmoid is charged (non-neutral) plasma formation.

It is revealed that aerodynamic drag of charged plasmoid is very small in air and water flows. So, it can move against a wind and a water flow.

The artificial primary plasmoid can be divided in two or three secondary plasmoids. There is also an opposite process of primary small plasmoids conglomeration to a single large secondary plasmoid. Note that this phenomenon is typical for natural plasmoids also.

So, experimental results obtained in our laboratory prove the supposition about cluster plasmoid physics of long-lived large-scale natural plasma formations. It is necessary to develop this theoretical model and check in future main conclusions of it.
