Summary

Description
English: This Lichtenberg fractal tree form was produced by a linear accelerator. By placing an acrylic block in the electron beam, this insulating material is charged to several megavolts. Punching this block with a sharp pin (seen at the bottom of the block) causes an electrical discharge with a fractal tree form.
