Abstract

A paper entitled “Body Image Formation Hypotheses Based on Corona Discharge” was presented at the Dallas Conference on the TS (Turin Shroud) in 2005 by G. Fanti, F. Lattarulo and O. Scheuermann. It contains hypotheses, experimental results and comments; however, some questions which came up during the discussions at the SSG (Shroud Science Group) level, led the author to write the present paper. After a presentation of the main points regarding CD (Corona Discharge), and the definition of the hypotheses regarding the assumed model, some new evidence is presented and discussed here, such as the exsiccation of limited parts of linen fibers. The paper then explains different points raised by the SSG, such as the radiation direction, the 3-D effects of radiation and its mathematical representation, the image resolution, the double draping configurations of the TS, and the color on the linen fibers. The experimental results obtained to support the hypothesized mechanism show no appreciable chemical-physical differences from the image features of the TS. These results confirm that the proposed CD mechanism could have been involve d in the TS body image formation.
