Right now trying my best to wade through the papers of Miles Mathis and Stephen Rado. (thanks to verpies and grumpy).
This guy can really think, I mean really think independently of the legacy encumbrances. However I am not his disciple. I just think he is less wrong than other physicists. IMO he goes too far with his "charge field" and most importantly he assumes that photons, electrons and nucleons are "things" moving in space and he does not go deep enough into analyzing what is spining in those "ponderable things". IMO his space time dimensions are off by one, because he assumes 1D time just like legacy science. As time permits, I enjoy reading this stuff, however IMHO, new viewpoints should result in new inventions as ultimate proof of their viability, lest they be just more philosophical argumentation. We shall see.
As far as physics goes - you are correct. However his mathematical and geometrical musings are beyond this burden of proof. I have some large aluminum discs 16 to 24 inches dia, and a few small brass plates.
I have some theoretical indications that Aluminum might be suitable because its inner neutrons can be exposed easily by NMR. Neutrons not shielded by protons decay spontaneously. Keep the disk radius as large as possible because that decreases the frequency requirements. Lower frequency minimizes the skin effect in conductive aluminum and the low-frequency field penetrates deeper into the disk (affecting more of its volume). Aluminum presents one disadvantage, though. Namely the beta particles ejected from aluminum are very energetic (fast) and that means that they require a stronger static magnetic field to keep them within the boundary of the disk (faster particles curve less in magnetic fields). For the single plate unit, I'm thinking that oscillating bucking radial fields against a slowly changing orthogonal static field might be an easy way to test theory. (or vice versa) Any thought?
Yes, oscillating opposing radial fields perpendicular to a static field (or a slowly changing field) is a viable technique. You have to tailor the geometry of your static (or LF) magnetic field so that it is perpendicular to the plane of the disk and its flux density increases further away from the center of the disk. Ideally, the magnetic field should be perpendicular to the plane of the disk, inside the disk (red), yet the same field should be parallel to the plane of the disk, immediately outside of the disk. This is tricky, because magnetic field lines do not "like" to make right-angle turns. But it is possible to approach it - take a look at the spool simulation. Use any means to approach that field geometry (even with ferromagnetic flux guides [gray] ) or your beta particles will escape the Gain Medium disk (red).
