While the phenomenon has frequently been adopted and displayed as a mystical or psychic "aura," the basic physical principles have been investigated ... When a high-voltage charge is applied across electrodes arranged much like a large capacitor, a corona discharge can occur in the air space between. This discharge occurs well before high-current density will cause a spark to jump the gap. Corona discharge causes a luminous glow that can be observed and photographed either with a camera and film or with the film alone exposed directly by contact or close proximity to an object. 2, record 1, English, - Kirlian%20photography
