What is the plasma composed of if not fermions?
Bosons?
You know more about how it works than I do, Im just thinking that temperature is the key to whether something is in a matter state or not. Plasma holds only electrons in a vacuum right? So my suggestion is that if it is acted upon by some form of heat or energy then it would create the opposing potential? Thereby allowing the EM process to begin? After the electrical field is produced the EM field would follow so to speak?

The same thing they are looking for in a particle accelerator. But if Im correct the key is cooling the particle to 0 degrees.

Lightning is an example of Hot and Cool coming together to form a charge. There is no charge release until the two come together. Because the cool molecules only hold only a negative potential until acted upon by the heat releasing kinetic energy? Something to that effect.
