Phenomena in Polarized Disperse Systems Caused by Exchange-Correlation Interaction between Particles

Abstract

We have studied the self-consistent states of nano-and micro-particle polarized powders and structures consisting of parallel particle chains and have determined conditions under which the static dielectric permittivity of a disperse system is negative. It has been shown that in such system an electric current runs without ohmic losses. We present the arguments for the physics of spontaneous emergence of the electric field in disperse systems made up of electrically neutral particles. It has been determined the influence the phase boundaries of a disperse system has on the origin of spontaneous polarization state. The structures consisting of parallel chains of dielectric particles can exhibit spontaneous polarization. In this case the properties of the spherical structure are similar to those of the ball lightning. It has been established correspondence of the obtained theoretical results with the experimental data available in the literature.
