We can all learn from each other, but its hard to respect someone who brings bigotry and racism to the open table of sharing ideas. If he apologies I will do the same and retract my comment. So far he hasn't, calling places where billions of innocent people live in peace "cesspools", so a tool head he remains. If you want to target someone, target failed corrupt leaders not the places where people live as your own leaders have brought your own house, in what I assume to be Canada, on the brink of collapse. Bickering amongst ourselves is exactly what these "leaders" love. There is already enough conflict and wars in the world, no need to start any here.
Anyway back to sharing ideas. There are no "charges", and this is a misconception brought by bad teaching. Calling a magnet a "dipole" only serves to confuse further. However if we look at a magnet for what it actually contains, namely a bunch of aligned electrons, it starts to make much more sense. The "current" represents the outer edges of the spins of the electrons that do not cancel each other due to their neighbors. When all electrons are aligned, their "inner" spin/currents components cancel and so you are only left with the outer edge part as there are no more neighbors to cancel it. This is also why you can model a PM as a coil, they are completely equivalent to each other given the right current. See attached drawing.
Unlike coils though, PMs are special, they are constant current coils. No matter how you manipulate some other "field" around them their "current" remains constant unlike a regular coil.
But as your idea implies, not everything is a PM, iron also contains these electrons but they are "soft" and can be easily manipulated and reoriented by an external magnetic force giving rise to complex non-linear dynamics. If exploited can give rise to interesting things. The best part is that this can be fully explored in FEMM as well perhaps making "science" look even worse for overlooking such a feature that was present in our current models of EM. At least they can say "it was there all along" and they can continue sleeping on that comfortable pillow of their education.
If what you say is true, then this !current! should be of equal value throughout the magnet and the field, which it is not.
The PM cannot be modeled as a coil, as the likes of a neodymium PM is a dead short- a coil is not. A coil has resistance, a PM does not.
A coil has a rise and fall time, a PM does not. In fact, there is not one thing the same, other than a coil produces a magnetic field, but the magnetic field of an electromagnet is not the same as that of a PM field.
The nice little pictures of PMs, that show arrows coming out of the north end, circling back around to the south end, and then flowing through the PM body, is nothing short of garbage.
We can clearly measure from one pole to center, a decline of charge down to 0, and then an incline of opposite charge from 0 up to maximum charge to the opposite outer pole of the PM body.
If there was some form of current flowing through the PM body, as the pretty pictures show, then we should see no change along the length of the PM body at all, as these currents must be of the same value throughout. But we don't. We see a sine wave from one end of the PM body, to the other end, not a continuous current flow.
The magnetic field is in the shape of infinity-a figure 8 on it's side, along the length of a long rod magnet
But so often, people are fooled by the wonderful sprinkling of iron filings over a piece of paper that is on top of a PM, thinking they are seeing this wonderful picture of field lines, oblivious to the fact that each one of them iron filings has become a temporary PM it self. And all these little PMs are sticking to each other, and not following the actual path of the PMs field.
See example below of garbage Vs reality.
If it were as the picture on the left side shows, where the arrow points from N to S, then if you had a long magnet as such, and a coil facing out through the page, then you should be able to pass that PM across the face of the coil, and get the same positive or negative sine as the PM approaches the coil, along the whole length of that magnet, as the lovely arrow shows that the same flowing field will be cutting through the coil along it's whole length. But we don't get that. We get what would be the case of the picture on the right, where one end of the PM will show say a negative sign as that end of the PM approaches the coil, and we get the opposite sine as the other end of the magnet approaches the coil. And if we pass the middle of the PM across the coil, we get nothing, as the field value is 0.
There is no currents, there is a separation of some form of charge happening in the PMs field, and I intend on finding out what this charge separation is. Could be this dark energy they need, in order for relativity to work on a universal scale, or it could be the either having what ever kind of charges it has, being separated.
A PM is billions of atomic generators acting together, and creating a charge separation around the PM body.
Thats my claim.
