Cherenkov

Composed of more than 200,000 points whose placement and properties follow Gaussian and Weibull distributions. A color palette was chosen that resembles the glow often seen around radioactive materials that emit charged particles, like electrons. This light, known as Cherenkov radiation, is the electromagnetic analogue of a sonic boom, and is generated when charged particles travel through a medium faster than light. (The speed of light in a vacuum is always the cosmic speed limit, but light actually slows down when traveling through matter.) This phenomenon was first observed by Pavel Cherenkov.
