In nature, there are many things that can glow naturally. Fireflies are the most common on land, and more fish and plankton in the sea can emit beautiful light. But modern science has also proved that the human body can actually emit light, which is called "human body emitting light". Because the light emitted by ordinary people like us is so dim that it is imperceptible to the naked eye.
If science proves that the human body can produce glow, that is, the halo around the whole body, it will inevitably remind people of some ancient saints and even the immortal images portrayed by people. They usually have a halo on their heads, or the back of their heads shines, and some are golden. How can they shine? So what is the relationship between the image of ancient saints and the "human light" proved by modern science? Is there any connection?
The phenomenon of "human body glowing" was reported and recorded only in modern times. 1669, a doctor in Denmark found a woman with a luminous body. 1930, a woman with a luminous figure appeared in Italy. Their bodies seem to be surrounded by a thin halo, especially at night, which is very conspicuous. These two women are special cases, because the light they emit is visible to the eyes. This strange luminescence phenomenon has aroused widespread concern.
However, due to the limitations of technology and equipment at that time, scientists could not observe whether this phenomenon existed in normal people. To the naked eye, do our ordinary bodies glow even in a very dark room? In the 1980s, many advanced optical instruments were invented, which enabled people to explore the secret of "human body emitting light". And has made many achievements and progress.
First of all, Japan, the United States and other countries have used a lot of high-tech equipment in the study of "human body luminescence". Japanese researchers used photomultiplier tube, a very sensitive medical facility that can detect very weak photons, and successfully obtained the luminous images of ordinary people.
Biologists in the Soviet Union can record the static state of human body and the change of magnetic field at the same time by using their own optical equipment, and found some obvious luminous points on human body. Surprisingly, these luminous points almost completely coincide with the positions of 74 1 acupuncture points on the human acupuncture atlas.
So far, people have proved the existence of ordinary people's body luminescence through advanced equipment, and the scientific research on human body luminescence is not a scientific exploration out of curiosity about the unknown, but a scientific research with high use value.
Because scientists have found that everyone's body emits different light and different colors. The glow distribution on a single person is also different, and the intensity will also change. For example, Professor Fumio Inada, a Japanese medical professor at that time, found that the body glow of people with good quality of life is stronger than that of people with poor quality of life, and the body glow of athletes is stronger than that of ordinary people, and the body glow will also weaken with age until it disappears.
Moreover, scientists have also found that different parts of a person's body are always in different States, and their light capacity is also different. For example, the halo on the arm is slightly darker than the light blue halo on the head, which is cyan; The luminous intensity of hands, especially fingers, is stronger than that of other parts of the human body (arms, legs and trunk). Moreover, people's luminous colors are different in different moods, that is, mental states, such as light blue when they are calm, orange when they are angry and orange when they are afraid.
How does the human body glow?
In fact, this is still a scientific problem. Some scientists believe that human luminescence is just a fluorescent phenomenon. It is believed that cells in the human body will release a weak invisible ray during mitosis, which is most released in the blood and will stimulate some substances in the body to produce fluorescence.
Scientists in China have also studied this, believing that human cells themselves can emit weak photons, which can be detected by instruments. Cell luminescence is the result of the movement of active oxygen free radicals, and it can also reflect the oxidation function and activity of a cell.
Some scientists believe that as long as it is higher than absolute zero, all substances will radiate electromagnetic waves. The secondary radiation of human body interacts with biological electric field and surrounding air to produce colored particles, and a large number of colored particles will produce glow.
It seems that no matter what explanation can solve this problem perfectly. As for why a few people can emit visible light, it is even less clear.
Then the next question is, why did the ancient images of saints have auras and their bodies glow?
The phenomenon of human body luminescence is not a patent of modern people. In ancient times, there must be people who could emit visible light at a specific time. We don't know whether those saints were once those radiant people, and their unusual qualities were worshipped by people.
Perhaps the ancients saw this magical phenomenon and may add some magical colors to some saints in the future.
