The electromagnetic field

The electromagnetic field is a force field generated around the moving electric charges equivalent to the amount of electric and magnetic fields, the vectors of which are located at right angles to each other. The main sources of household electromagnetic fields are power lines, home wiring, etc.

Frequency spectrum of electromagnetic fields is very wide: from Y-rays with a wavelength of less than 10^-13 m to radio waves, the length of which measured in kilometers.

Electromagnetic waves have an impact on many objects, including living organisms. For example, a metre-long radio waves cause excitation in monkeys: they turn the head in the direction of their source, they begin to experience the excitement. Some are unicellular, such as the green flagellates of euglena are arranged in strict order towards the antenna of a radio transmitter. A similar reaction of living beings to electromagnetic field can sometimes take for servocroata and communication with the spirit world.

The electromagnetic field also acts on objects made of magnetic materials such as iron filings, compass needles, etc. That impact can sometimes be taken for the manifestation of a poltergeist.

One of the manifestations of the electromagnetic field are the famous St. Elmo's fire.
