%J 大气科学进展 %D 1989 %I %X Based on the results of plasma experiments and research work done by Dawson and Jones, Trubnikov, Endean, and other researchers, three requirements for producing and maintaining plasma ball lightning have been found: 1) rotation of plasma, 2) the density of charged particlesn e >3.15 x 10 10ω2, 3) a stable confinement of plasma. In this model, the energy density of ball lightning ranged from 10-2 J/ cm3 to 104 J / cm3, the formation, shape, stability, energy, maintaining processes and other properties of ball lightning were explained reasonably. %U http://www.alljournals.cn/get_abstract_url.aspx?pcid=E62459D214FD64A3C8082E4ED1ABABED5711027BBBDDD35B&cid=28A2F569B2458C17&jid=5434AFBF6CB6E7E8D67733B541F211C7&aid=561062063F224A64D820717B1BFF322F&yid=1833A6AA51F779C1&vid=B31275AF3241DB2D&iid=CA4FD0336C81A37A&sid=95D537AC89B28832&eid=67969BA850333433&journal_id=0256-1530&journal_name=大气科学进展&referenced_num=0&reference_num=0
