Those concentric shells around the star are absolutely electric double layers which is a plasma self organization effect. How astronomers can continue to ignore such beautiful examples of electric double layer plasma electric current flow is beyond me. I don't claim to say whole electric universe theory of how stars work is 100% correct but damm... this sure looks like slam dunk evidence that there is electric current flow around this star for whatever reason to me! Thank you Anton for showing us this!
The „Shockrings“ surrounding the WR-Star have the same appearance as the doublelayers surrounding the anode shown in the SAFIRE experiment. This is amazing.
@@0752756949 according to the electric universe model, the stars are the anodes! It's really fascinating stuff - the folks who advocate for it admittedly aren't the *best* at communicating their ideas, but their core concepts are pretty reasonable imo.
@@0752756949 No offense taken! I really appreciate your balance of curiosity and skepticism. I must agree, some of their claims are pretty incredible, but I think that's mostly to do with the general nature of paradigm shifts. It really made me appreciate how many "facts" about the universe are really just models we've taken for granted. In the EU model, stars are the anodes of the discharge, while the interstellar medium is the cathode - it's directly analogous to a toy plasma ball. And you're actually spot on with the dark plasma, haha! But there's nothing mythical about it, most of the currents that flow through and between galaxies are just too weak and rarified to stimulate further ionization or radiative emission from the neutral component of the plasma - this is known as the dark mode, as opposed to the glow and arc modes. And it turns out only 0.01% of the gas has to be ionized in order to conduct currents. I highly recommend watching "Understanding Plasma Discharges" by See The Pattern, he gives a fantastic introduction to these different plasma modes.
@@0752756949 Most of the plasma in the interstellar medium is in dark mode, so the ions don't have enough kinetic energy to trigger more ionization or atomic transitions that would produce radiation. That said, these currents do appear to glow in radio frequencies, and they can be seen along the spiral arms of galaxies! Additionally, plasma's resistivity is usually proportional to (electron temperature)^-3/2, and the temperature of the interstellar medium is extremely variable - I think this could lead to the formation of filaments that channel the plasma between stars and galaxies, the same way a canyon channels a river. I also have a lot of questions about the model - the driving force of these currents is an excellent question I don't have an answer for. From what I understand, there aren't just two poles, but instead there are countless positive anodes (stars) in an electron-rich cathode medium, sooooorta like atoms and their electron sea in a metal. Plasma also has a strong tendency to form double-layers which shield the internal bulk from its environment, and this may serve an important role in limiting electrostatic repulsion between stars.
@@0752756949 What leads you to believe the stars ought to be extinguished by the cathode medium? The anode in a plasma ball toy is surrounded by a cathode medium, and it doesn't extinguish - it forms a sheet of plasma just above the anode surface. The bizarre temperature gradients seen between the photosphere and corona can be readily explained by the presence of a double-layer that shields the star from the interstellar medium. The electrons in the sun form a sort of skin, regulating the intake of current from its environment similar to how a living cell uses its membrane to maintain an electrochemical potential. The vacuum of space is electrically neutral, so the presence of stars, which all have large positive charges in this model, implies an overabundance of electrons in the otherwise neutral interstellar medium (i.e. plasma plasma everywhere). Also, who says there has to be only one source? If sources are distributed homogeneously in accord with the Copernican principle, we should see filaments in every orientation everywhere, and we do! The way I understand it, there's no need to invoke the existence of parallel universes.
Like siren said below, such an amazing time to be alive and witness such mind-bottling discoveries. A lot of these things will force us to rethink what we thought we knew about the universe. Amazing. Thank You for being our most wonderful ambassador to the stars, Anton. We need a level head like you to break it down to us without a bunch of heated speculation. Thanks.
Many people who study WR stars think they aren't a specific class of stars, but a phase of massive stars' evolution. It is thought that WR stars might be the precursor to supernova.
Idk where you find this, but I studied wr stats and can tell you, the most unique typenof star that we know of. In fact, I would say the only star to create other things... There's a plethora of scientific papers on them.
Hey man, you have a really fascinating and profound character! Dont suppress that and be confident in your voice Sometimes standing up helps to be consistenly clear, especially in these long talks
The presence of these periodic shells is mind blowing and pretty gorgeous to look at but as usual I picked up on something shocking that was said and more or less passed over. That huge stars can be hot enough and massive enough to burn heavy elements without the presence of or in a partial absence of the hydrogen we associate with star power. Bonkers!
"But before I tell you a little bit more about this..." Braces for sponsor read, it doesn't come, relax and remember it's just Anton about to tell me more wonderful stuff about space and science 😀
Those rings look oddly familiar, SAFIRE has very similar phenomenon with there star in a jar model. They describe them as self organizing plasma called double layers. They hinted continuing their experiments with radioactive material mediums but nothing else has come from the labs since the US military took interest.
Determining the age of the formation through the rings reminds me of a form of absolute dating used a lot in archaeology: dendrochronology. Which is counting the rings of a piece of wood (including whole trees) to determine how old something associated with it is.
Astronomers are better than dendrologists. They do not need to bore holes in living trees to extract cores and subject the trees to the consequences of having a core bored out from you. Like it is 21st century, can't they really not figure out a non-destructive way of testing a tree?
@@u.v.s.5583 Directly sampling something is always better than simply observing it. Also, remember you're comparing two vastly different systems. Trees are living systems, they grow. Plus, the equivalent of "boring a hole" in a solar system like sampling another solar system's chondrites for the first time will give us a wealth of information. It'll tell us old it is, the material composition of its early solar system and give us a timeline of events in that solar system. Our chondrites show signs of a superheating event in the early solar system for example, which may have been due to a near encounter with another star. And it could tell us how evenly distributed heavy elements from neutron star collisions are throughout the universe. We don't know if its homogeneous or heterogeneous.
@@Jamex07 I'm pretty sure ultrasound or x-rays can easily be used in place of coring a tree. But yea why choose a more expensive method when a simpler method exists? Non-destructive testing should really be used for older trees that need to be studied multiple times though
More amazing if one went back in time of astronomers prime research dates, then star gazed, all those fast-forward optical sightings of aged-light, that are now no longer, would equal ~ 1500x the date of astronomers deep sight took place to anyone on Earth. You would need to record in faster and faster rate, the further view in space, even if the video was divided by a team, could still be a life time, just to see in normal 'light-youth' age in real-time. In clouding sporting a massive martian/alien star cruiser.
After all the science fiction I've thought about, it's always fun to consider how sentient beings seeing other skies might interpret them ... What mythologies are produced by these unusual co-orbits, or vast clouds of dust that obscure an otherwise resplendent night's viewing?
I really love astronomy but I've never seen anything like this before. It's amazing how there are so many interesting phenomena out there that I haven't even heard of.
OK, I can extrapolate from this video that even as the Milkway is described as much smaller than Andromeda, our galaxy is much more active in star formation even as it is not in the league of starburst galaxies at this point in its life.
I thought the Milky Way was a monster of a galaxy, more massive than Andromeda? At least I know we assimilated quite a number of other smaller galaxies - not that we know which one we're from - _although_ deduction can be somewhat used; and it may not be "of either" as the "collisions" birthing stars will be a joint effort.
@@SebHaarfagre No. Our core black hole, Sagittarius A*, has a mass of only-only!- 5-6 mil, thereabouts. Andromeda's core black hole is five times that massive at least (20ish?) Bigger black hole, bigger galaxy, generally. Sorry that I can't remember exactly how big they are.
Small slip of the tongue - I think? At around 4:00 you said that these stars are some of the hottest in the universe at 200, 000K. Do you mean the surface temperature of such a star is 200, 000K?
Those rings we see are caused purely by refraction of light from relatively close stars. Einstein crosses are caused by the same thing from distant galaxies or stars whose image is refracted around the ejecta of galaxies or galaxy clusters in the foreground.
Love the videos, interesting that you mention the 'spikes' in the image are due to telescope design.. those with astigmatism often actually see these spikes of light from all lights.
I can't wait for all the results that james webb will produce. just comparing the deep field of james webb with the one hubble took tells me: james webb can take better images in 1/30 the time than hubble. that means operating james webb will produce in a year a similar output to what hubble made over the mission time. sure, it will be used for stuff hubble was never designed for, but the amount of what we will know in a year is impressive.
Anton I love your content. Your videos always manage to intrigue me! You have a wonderful knack for finding things to talk about that other channels never bother to mention! I think if you were to upgrade your mic and once over your script, avoiding phrases you use too frequently, you could really hit that next level of youtube views. Not a big change but a necessary one. I love you regardless.
R136a1 is a main sequence Wolf-Rayet star, WN5hV because it is fusing hydrogen in its core (the hydrogen is replenished through convection). Cf Wikipedia.
I'm just being a stickler, but I'd like to point out that this is more like the swirl of a snail house but then broken on one side, because the 2 stars create 1 continuous swirl instead of individual "rings" that grow outwards, it's just less visible that they're joined at the edges (unlike tree rings which definitely are rings).
@@Yezpahr I can't see that from the picture and Anton called them "little spheres". Snail house = "Shell" btw and the pattern you're describing is a "spiral"

Small slip of the tongue - I think? At around 4:00 you said that these stars are some of the hottest in the universe at 200, 000K. Do you mean the surface temperature of such a star is 200, 000K?
Yes. He's referring to surface temperature.
@@booklover6753 Ah, thanks. Good to know!
Anton your vulgarisation skills are incredible. Especially in such short time from James Webb observations
Great explanation for us non-astrophyisicist nerds
thank you
Palm of the star form these rings.
Those rings remind me of the projection a point of light makes when focused through a small hole
Very interesting 💫
Big thanks
I don't get how they discovered these stars back that far 1800 . What telescope did they have . Must have been good .
There were some pretty powerful telescopes in the 1800s. Look it up.
These stars are also some of the brightest in the sky though, and two can even be seen with the naked eye
Those rings we see are caused purely by refraction of light from relatively close stars. Einstein crosses are caused by the same thing from distant galaxies or stars whose image is refracted around the ejecta of galaxies or galaxy clusters in the foreground.
Love the videos, interesting that you mention the 'spikes' in the image are due to telescope design.. those with astigmatism often actually see these spikes of light from all lights.
Playing Elite Dangerous and jumping into a system with a WR star... Is so God damn bright haha
I can't wait for all the results that james webb will produce. just comparing the deep field of james webb with the one hubble took tells me: james webb can take better images in 1/30 the time than hubble. that means operating james webb will produce in a year a similar output to what hubble made over the mission time. sure, it will be used for stuff hubble was never designed for, but the amount of what we will know in a year is impressive.
Or the amount we will realize we don't know 🤯
@@ET-bc4yj well that happens. we will get a lot of answers and we will discover new questions to ask. I am interested to see what happens.
Anton I love your content. Your videos always manage to intrigue me! You have a wonderful knack for finding things to talk about that other channels never bother to mention! I think if you were to upgrade your mic and once over your script, avoiding phrases you use too frequently, you could really hit that next level of youtube views. Not a big change but a necessary one. I love you regardless.
Literally ripples in time.
Magnetic variance field around a star by the look.
That’s pretty cool.
You are a wonderful person Anton ! ♥
R136a1 is a main sequence Wolf-Rayet star, WN5hV because it is fusing hydrogen in its core (the hydrogen is replenished through convection). Cf Wikipedia.
*When will the JWST focus on more nearby stars like Proxima B?*
Picture of a star stripping a partner star. JWST became a paparazzi.
839 you can clearly see in this image the spiral nature of the shells - they’re not concentric, but part of a continuous spiral.
Goodness.. they are like the rings of a tree counting the seasons 😯
I'm just being a stickler, but I'd like to point out that this is more like the swirl of a snail house but then broken on one side, because the 2 stars create 1 continuous swirl instead of individual "rings" that grow outwards, it's just less visible that they're joined at the edges (unlike tree rings which definitely are rings).
@@Yezpahr I can't see that from the picture and Anton called them "little spheres".
Snail house = "Shell" btw and the pattern you're describing is a "spiral"
How realistic is a close picture of a exoplanets
At least the color of one ?
Looking good
Thanks
Those rings look exactly like plasma double layers as demonstrated by the SAFIRE Project.
You got such a very unique voice, you could become an actor/voice actor easily xD
I wonder what the timelines are between those rings?
