Theory on the workings of blasters
Posted: Fri Apr 18, 2014 10:13 pm
Here is a theory on how blasters work:
1. The power cell releases several megajoules of energy into the electrode/helicon coupler.(This comes from the holes the blasters made at tatooine.)
2. A fan or air compressor blows a stream of gas through the helicon coupler or electrodes turning it in a stream of plasma.
3. The plasma is sent through a tube where the plasma is electromagnetically accelerated and most importantly the plasma is spun.
4. The spin causes the dynamo effect to occur which creates a magnetic field containing the plasma.
It turns out that the dynamo effect is the reason why blaster bolts seem to explode when they hit something:
5. The plasma bolt makes contact disrupting the magnetic field causing the plasma to "explode" on the target.
The explosion happens because the magnetic field is no longer their so the ions rapidly spread out; explosively due to being under magnetic pressure.
What do you think about this theory?
