... I found that ad for "Captured Lightning", Lichtenberg
figures inside 2 cm acrylic plates. $10 for 2"x2", $25 for 4"x4",
more expensive if you want the edges grond and polished.
Implanted with 4 megavolt equipment.
I have a related question. Suppose that a pure dielectric, such
as SiO2, is "loaded" with a uniform cloud of net negative charge.
This can be done, for example, by stopping beta particles inside.
Would the cloud remain uniform (as the charge density goes up)
or will charges be drifting toward the surface, as in metals, due
to mutual repulsion? What is the maximum possible charge
density (order of magnitude) inside a solid?
