Thank you Ralph! I feel the same way. I saw this phenomena on the "teslacoilpro" youtube channel over the summer and instantly knew I needed to have the device on my desk too. Since then, I've worked with plasma globe expert, wayne strattman and rf engineer Jeff feigin to make that dream into a reality. Stay tuned for more updates and hopefully a device that can run for longer than 4 minutes without making the heat sink very hot.
If you get the conditions right, you could get the toroid to take the shape of a galaxy like physicist Winston H. Bostick did back in 1956. Understanding Plasmoids video by See the Pattern talks about Winston H. Bostick Galaxies in Test Tube.
That was an informative video. It’s comforting to know that plasma toroids have been researched professionally before. I learned more about them, thanks
Wow. It looks like visual effects, when you grounded and could see those individual dots, and it just coalesces into the fuzzy toroid, the way it turns and warps. Incredible. Reality is beautiful and art does its best to mimic it. Completely entrancing Crazy you can get something going at this scale, it just looks like magic. Very powerful stuff
@@BackMacSci Aliassing is what you get when the signal has a higher frequency than half the sample rate. At that point you start missing data, presenting you with a different curve than the actual signal. This also happens with video camera's by the way. Ever noticed how the wheels of a car on video oscillate between looking like they're turning forwards and backwards as it speeds up or slows down? That's the exact same principle.
@@BackMacSci by the way, that thing about the sampling rate needing to be twice the signal frequency is for digital systems For getting a good view of an analogue one you might wanna add a few more samples (like 10 fold or so) because otherwise you don't have enough data points to see the shape of the curve and the signal can start looking like it's knotted (oscillating between high and low amplitude) like what we're seeing on your scope right now
i'll add myself into here as another youtuber finding this video lol. That's really cooool! I love how you personify the electricity as it's own separate living thing to shush when it screams xd. I used to watch you when I had a channel called experimental madness. Can't remember if I ever commented or if you'd remember, but super cool to see you in my recommended again!
@@BackMacSci can you play some Bach to the ring like Eric Dollard does. Plasma loves Bach and honestly so do i. My whole view of music and so much more has drastically changed. And SUBSCRIBED
That’s an amazing idea. As soon as I make it reproducible, i’ll let know. The main issue right now is the cost of the noble gas. The plasma toroid has only been observed in krypton and xenon and to get a globe like this, I payed $325. The rest of the circuit is
I think the peak voltage increases after the plasma dies for the same reason that SSTCs die from excessive toploading: the plasma acts as a load just like a Tesla coil streamer, and as such, it "sucks away" the power and gives it some place to go. My current theory is that the plasma ring is acting as a secondary coil, in the way that it is essentially a conductive loop that extracts power from another coil. That might also explain why it forms a ring shape: when the plasma is ignited by the Slayer Exciter, it has no shape (I assume). But when the primary coil induces an HF voltage into it, it travels in the same path as it would in the wire of a secondary coil (in a circle mostly parallel to the primary) and the coupled magnetic fields keep most of the plasma in the conductive region. Just my theory anyway, congrats on the major success!
Wow, great theory! You took the words right out of my mouth. I didn't know how to say that the plasma ring is a conductive loop that extracts power from the coil below, but I like that a lot. If you watch the video in slow motion, the plasma toroid "ignites" (is what I'm calling it) already in the shape of a toroid, and rises from the bottom, gaining thickness and stabilizing around the center of the globe. What I find most interesting is that if I ionize the xenon into a glow discharge, and then turn up the gate bias, the oscillator generally cannot form the toroid out of the glow discharge plasma that fills the globe, the toroid forms easiest when there is little to no glow discharge in the globe. Maybe the glow discharge saps the power that is needed to ignite the toroid...
@@BackMacSci Maybe the toroid has issues initiating from a simple glow discharge because the resonator is acting more like an induction heater: simply "fueling" the existing plasma (like you said, sapping energy away), while a toroid initiated from an electromagnetic field is more likely to maintain its ring shape, since that ring is where the electrons are "happiest" flowing. Since electric fields are perpendicular to magnetic fields, this "happy zone" seems to make sense. The magnetic flux from the primary it pointing up into the globe, while the electricity is flowing round and round in the plasma at basically a right angle to that field! Pretty neat to see the physics work out like that, lol!
@@LabCoatz_Science I agree, thanks! I'm looking into eddy currents and inductively coupled plasma along with your comments to make my video explanation!
I am going crazy while reading your explanations, congratulations to both of you for being such good physicists. This story reminds me of my time as a first-year engineering student, I had dreamed of something like this, a low-pressure plasma that sustained itself by the fields it created around it, thanks to the currents that circulated in it. I hope you understand my English is not the best ajaja, Thank you very much for sharing, I send greetings from Argentina.
You could definitely make a music visualizer with this. If you could somehow isolate frequencies for x/y/z rotation, you could link each axis with 1/3 of the frequency response for a song. Maybe you could also pair that warbling effect with the volume level or something. I'm sure it would need to be translated from music into how you're controlling it, however I am also curious as to what an audio file would look like directly.
Any song by Jerobeam Fenderson might also produce interesting results on its own because it's music created such that the audio itself is the music video when fed into an oscilloscope (left/right audio channels as x/y)
please collect more footage of this! I would love to see it in different lighting conditions with a still camera. what an incredible visual reference for plasma!
I'm no dummy when it comes to physics, but electromagnetism has always been basically magic to me, lol. I have no idea what's going here but it sure looks awesome.
This blows my mind. I have never seen anything like it and I wish I could see it in person. though I don't have any plans to build one because I'm not good with this kind of thing.
That's certainly giving new meaning to "Lightning in a bottle." (perhaps only subtly new compared to plasma globes, but still new, to me anyways. Very pretty~)
Awesome! This is quite mesmerizing and impresive. Have you considered using a Helmholtz (3 coil) arrangement around the vessel to get a very uniform magnetic dipole? You might be interested in the work of Jean Pierre Petit PhD on Magnetohydrodynamic control of air plasmas, the technology he demonstrates has been shown to negate sonic booms around supersonic aircraft, which could drastically improve drag, speed and noise pollution if it ever makes it into the commercial aircraft or spaceplane industry. His designs are for spherical, cylindrical, disc and wing shaped airfoils, that have either parietal (linear lengthwise) electromagnets, or 3 coils. The magnetic fields on the coils are at right angles to 2 high voltage ignition electrodes, which causes air plasma to form and accelerate around the MHD generator/motor, and then decelerates and compresses against the aft lifting surface before the plasma neutralizes and sheds as a high speed vortex. By sinusoidally varying the current for the 3 coils in 2 phases, the magnetic field it generates is first opposing North to North, then opposing South to South, the shaping of this magnetic field crossed with the electric field causes the resulting vector field of Lorentz forces/Laplace forces in the plasma to point in the direction parallel to the lifting surface, in order to confine it against the frame. Plasma has a natural tendency to be blown away by a dipole magnetic field, so it's necessary to make time varying, opposing magnetic fields to maximize the field strength and uniform parallel field lines along the surface you want the plasma to flow. You could adapt Petit's designs to a Helmholtz coil configuration, or a rotating magnetic field coil (RMF coil) around your vessel, with the electrodes opposing, so that you can precisely control the MHD forces on the ring of plasma and therefore its properties. For example, by appropriate selection of the vessel size and rotation speed, you may exploit the beta orbit of electrons, to heat them up without heating the ions, to create a non-equilibrium or cold plasma with many unusual properties due to the separation of charges of different temperatures.

Oh that's a fantastic thing! Superb! I never thought of a ring shape plasma without the help of a toroidal tube. I agree that you investingated a new fenomenon that deserves further investigations
Hope I'm writing an exaggeration, but you confined a plasma in a torus right inside a glass tube. More of all, it is in a very stable form at room temperature on a bench top! I dunno why all this reminds me the efforts the world is doing to do the very same, but spending zillion of zillions of dollars, inside the tokamak gigantic machines, where the plasma has only a bunch of seconds to stabilize...
@@mariodistefano2973 The difference is this isn't hydrogen, this is a heavy noble gas. They are also scaling this way up and have the intention to generate more energy than they put in via fusion.
@@_shadow_1 Nothing to do with it, the architecture is completely different. What is truly novel and worthwhile of further study is that he was able to confine a plasma into a stable torroid without any external magnetic fields applied to constrict the plasma - he simply used the plasmas own properties to stabilize itself with a different approach.
The toroid gas when ignited acts like a shorted turn in a transformer. Ionized gas is more conductive than when it's not ionized. When the toroid collapses you lose the shorted turn and the oscillator output goes higher in voltage when unloaded. Once you get the gas excited the oscillator keeps the ionized gas ionized without the tesla coil.
@@BackMacSci You may not be too far from that- if you can make a plasma sphere and surround it with thermocouples set up as a thermopyle, you may be able to draw more energy from it's corona than what it takes to sustain the plasma sphere... Look up the Sapphire Project, this is precisely what they did, but they used a spherical anode and a rod cathode. It might work, or it might not... Who wants free energy anyway?
@@BackMacSci I wouldn't look too heavily into that stuff, the safire project is strongly linked with the electric universe "model" which is heavily based off obsolete and long debunked plasma cosmology. It just doesn't explain many phenomenon like, blackholes (which we now know exist, we've taken a picture of one) and gravity which all have a strong basis in modern theories. Heck even one of the main guys who previously worked on the project apparently called it quack science at best and pedalling a scam at worst.
Stuff like this looks almost like magic to me. I absolutely love playing with plasma and now I have to make one of these. Well made and thanks for the video!
Quite beautiful! I especially liked the part when it formed before stabilizing. Kinda curious how it would react to external permanent magnets, maybe they'd disrupt it so it collapses?
This is pretty incredible! I worked on an experiment where I was making stable plasma toroids in an open atmosphere environment. I have a few videos on my channel.
I don’t think your plasma toroid likes being kept in such a small enclosure for an extended period of time. Perhaps if you took your toroid on more walks or trips to your local toroid park, perhaps it can be more content?
Thank you! I think it’s the closest thing our world has to magic too. I didn’t invent it exactly but I did see “magic_plazma” do it on instagram and I built my setup based off the components I saw in his short video clips.
I think I understand the physics behind it. I explained in another comment in the section, so just a quick look around and you’ll see. It’s essentially inductively coupled, relatively low-temperature plasma.
I've seen plasma rings like this before but have always wondered how one goes about obtaining the globes of noble gas. Thanks for this incredible video! I have some old plasma experiment stuff that's been put away for many years.... great work stay safe
I would love to see this turned into a product we could purchase, I have never heard of a plasma generator that you could tweak settings for different visual effects.
I perform research in single trapped ion physics, but often my work overlaps with plasma physics and I have to say this is an absolute delight of an experiment! I think you're right about the plasma acting as an inductive component causing a shift in frequency. What you could do is measure the frequency shift, and calculate what inductance value you would need to make such a shift (maybe start with an LC or LCR circuit model), and then, try and reconcile that value with the geometry of your toroidal plasma -- as you probably know inductance is highly geometry dependant. Anyway, delightful!
I know it's silly, but things like these make me think science just might reach the realm of magic or discover some unknown phenomena that will impact the world in a huge way, during our lifetime. Very cool experiment. Keep science-ing
Hi @BackMacSci This is the first video ive seen from your channel and I LOVE it!

Look up the Sapphire Project, this is precisely what they did, but they used a spherical anode and a rod cathode. It might work, or it might not... Who wants free energy anyway?
@@mcdoctorglock Hahah I'll check out the Sapphire Project
@@BackMacSci you can find their big talks on "the thunderbolts project" UA-cam channel
@@BackMacSci I wouldn't look too heavily into that stuff, the safire project is strongly linked with the electric universe "model" which is heavily based off obsolete and long debunked plasma cosmology. It just doesn't explain many phenomenon like, blackholes (which we now know exist, we've taken a picture of one) and gravity which all have a strong basis in modern theories. Heck even one of the main guys who previously worked on the project apparently called it quack science at best and pedalling a scam at worst.
This is hands down the best video i've seen this year
can you make 10-hour video of the plasma toroid just hanging out and slowly wiggling in the darkness?
Stuff like this looks almost like magic to me. I absolutely love playing with plasma and now I have to make one of these.
Well made and thanks for the video!
This looks so cool! You are likeba mage handling something extremely unstable with such precision!
No idea what is happening, but it is dope.
A pocket cyclotron ! Neat!
I feel blessed to be watching this soon to be viral video before it’s recommended to everyone every 2 months
Quite beautiful! I especially liked the part when it formed before stabilizing. Kinda curious how it would react to external permanent magnets, maybe they'd disrupt it so it collapses?
This is the kind of science I love. The trial and error first for fun and then for the interesting properties it makes.
This is pretty incredible! I worked on an experiment where I was making stable plasma toroids in an open atmosphere environment. I have a few videos on my channel.
He built it in a cave!
From a box of scraps!!
Beautiful science man 😘👌
I don’t think your plasma toroid likes being kept in such a small enclosure for an extended period of time. Perhaps if you took your toroid on more walks or trips to your local toroid park, perhaps it can be more content?
This guy here opening portals to another dimension is the one of coolest video recently I have seen
that is amazing, like magic. Did you invent this? I am not familiar with such a setup.
Thank you! I think it’s the closest thing our world has to magic too. I didn’t invent it exactly but I did see “magic_plazma” do it on instagram and I built my setup based off the components I saw in his short video clips.
@@BackMacSci do you know the physics behind this? Can you make a video about the physics or point me to a website?
I think I understand the physics behind it. I explained in another comment in the section, so just a quick look around and you’ll see. It’s essentially inductively coupled, relatively low-temperature plasma.
I've seen plasma rings like this before but have always wondered how one goes about obtaining the globes of noble gas. Thanks for this incredible video! I have some old plasma experiment stuff that's been put away for many years.... great work stay safe
If you found way to reliably replicate this and mass produce the parts pre assembled, you could make a lot of money with this. It's beautiful.
Woah an unappreciated channel that actually replies and reads the comments! You've earned one subscribble
Heck yeah!
You're a wizard, Harry.
I would love to see this turned into a product we could purchase, I have never heard of a plasma generator that you could tweak settings for different visual effects.
I think I just found my new favorite channel
1 step closer to 1 million more steps to space muniplatation and blending reality. You giving me that LOL vibes, new area of magic
I freaking loved the color it got when you turned it on
I perform research in single trapped ion physics, but often my work overlaps with plasma physics and I have to say this is an absolute delight of an experiment! I think you're right about the plasma acting as an inductive component causing a shift in frequency. What you could do is measure the frequency shift, and calculate what inductance value you would need to make such a shift (maybe start with an LC or LCR circuit model), and then, try and reconcile that value with the geometry of your toroidal plasma -- as you probably know inductance is highly geometry dependant. Anyway, delightful!
This genuinely has mad scientist energy and I love it.
As an electronics student, it's really awesome to see this and actually somewhat understand how the circuit works! Very cool! :D
Thank you UA-cam recommendations... I love it!
this is the coolest thing I have seen in my life
That is one of the coolest things I've ever seen!
Loving that sketchy looking control board. Looks like something I would do. LOL!
I didn't understand too much of what you said, but funny ring going wobbl wobbl made me happy. Thanks for the video.
feels like watching a found footage backrooms video, this is the first person to discover the dimension
This has to be one of the coolest electronic experiments i've ever seen, that looks awesome.
So many major science UA-camrs here wow, that's how you know this is legit impressive. You even got styropyro here
It's the first of your videos I've watched. What a cool interest!
That is insanely awesome! UA-cam recommendations on point right now.
holy shit, that s the coolest thing I have ever seen for the year!
This is the coolest recommendation that UA-cam gave me it’s a cool experiment
CONGRADULATIONS!!!! An amazing journey!😁😁😁😁
That is probably the coolest thing i've seen in the last months by far, i really want to get into this more
I love the look of this video. Reminds be of those underexposed early UA-cam videos
Immediately subscribed! I really love science like this and I hope to see more of it here!
I have no idea what you're talking about but it's cool, congrats and thanks for sharing!!
Mind blowing awesome!!!!
I've never seen this behaviour shown or described elsewhere. This looks amazing!
I know it's silly, but things like these make me think science just might reach the realm of magic or discover some unknown phenomena that will impact the world in a huge way, during our lifetime. Very cool experiment. Keep science-ing
Got to love being able to perform particle physics experiments in your garage/workshop.
why does youtube only ever recommend me the good stuff when it’s 3AM????
Wow i could watch this all day
That's some cool work you are doing! Very cool! Thank you!
That is the neatest device I ever saw.
I never seen a plasma ring before.
It looks like you captured an angel's Halo in a jar
Thank you! I love how it bounces around too
ive never seen anything as cool done with plasma as this
Hi @BackMacSci This is the first video ive seen from your channel and I LOVE it! I use to love doing science experiements as a kid but then I grew to hate "Science" in school because it wasnt about learning and discovering... it was about passing exams. Seeing you hold a ring of plasma in a light bulb like a freaking wizard made me remember what I love about science in general. Thank you for what you do!
Thank you John! That’s my goal!
