Haha, i'm very interested in this thread...
What do you guys think of this?
"Lines of force originated with Michael Faraday, whose theory holds that all of reality is made up of force ***itself."
"Lines of force originated with Michael Faraday, whose theory holds that all of reality is made up of force ***itself."
(had to paste that one twice... )
[Faraday]
"His theory predicts that electricity, light, and gravity have finite propagation delays. The theories and experimental data of later scientific figures such as Maxwell, Hertz, Einstein, and others are in agreement with the ramifications of Faraday's theory.
Nevertheless, Faraday's theory remains distinct.
"Unlike Faraday, Maxwell and others (e.g., J.J. Thomson) thought that light and electricity must propagate through an ether. In Einstein's relativity, there is no ether, yet the physical reality of force is much weaker than in the theories of Faraday."
"Historian Nancy J. Nersessian in her paper "Faraday's Field Concept" distinguishes between the ideas of Maxwell and Faraday:"
" The specific features of Faraday's field concept, in its 'favourite' and most complete form, are that force is a ***substance, that it is the ***only substance and that ***all forces are interconvertible through various motions of the lines of force."
"These features of Faraday's 'favourite notion' were not carried on. Maxwell, in his approach to the problem of finding a mathematical representation for the continuous transmission of electric and magnetic forces, considered these to be states of stress and strain in a mechanical aether."
Tesla:
"He later railed against the limited and erroneous theories of Maxwell, Hertz, Lorentz, and Einstein."
"Tesla's ether was neither the "solid" ether with the "tenuity of steel" of Maxwell and Hertz, nor the half-hearted, entrained, gaseous ether of Lorentz. Tesla's ether consisted of "carriers immersed in an insulating fluid", which filled all space. Its properties varied according to relative movement, the presence of mass, and the electric and magnetic environment."
"Tesla's ether was rigidified by rapidly varying electrostatic forces, and was thereby involved in gravitational effects, inertia, and momentum, especially in the space near earth, since, as explained by Tesla, the earth is "...like a charged metal ball moving through space", which creates the enormous, rapidly varying electrostatic forces which diminish in intensity with the square of the distance from earth, just like gravity. Since the direction of propagation radiates from the earth, the so-called force of gravity is toward earth."
"Tesla commenced to complete his Dynamic Theory of Gravity at the same approximate period of time that his experimental results and theories had been revealed in the three lectures, often illustrated with demonstrations using Tesla-invented equipment, as revealed in the following eight excerpts, in pertinent part (emphasis mine):"
"1. "The most probable medium filling the space is one consisting of independent carriers immersed in an insulating fluid".
2. "In his experiments he dwells first on some phenomena produced by electrostatic force, which he considers in the light of modern theories to be the most important force in nature for us to investigate."
3. "He illustrates how mechanical motions are produced by a varying electrostatic force acting through a gaseous medium."
4. "One of the most interesting results arrived at in pursuing these experiments, is the demonstration of the fact that a gaseous medium upon which vibration is impressed by rapid changes of electrostatic potential, is rigid".
5. "If through this medium enormous electrostatic stresses are assumed to act, which vary rapidly in intensity, it would allow the motion of a body through it, yet it would be rigid and elastic, although the fluid itself might be devoid of these properties".

Just recently, I read that the magnetic field of the sun rotates with the sun, extends to at least the heliosphere, has folds and wrinkles in it near the heliosphere, has the capacity to accelerate charged particles at increasing speed, with ***increasing energy, the further they travel from the surface of the sun so that the surface of the sun has a temp of 6000K and yet the outer surface of the corona has temps of millions of degrees... I think Tesla's concept is that matter ***receives energy, and has no charge of its own....
"These eruptions are known as coronal mass ejections, or CMEs. A large CME can contain 10.0E16 grams (a ***billion tons) of matter that can be accelerated to ***several million miles per hour in a spectacular explosion. Solar material streaks out through the interplanetary medium...
"...Flares can accelerate protons and electrons that travel to Earth directly from the Sun along the ****interplanetary magnetic field (which "channels" the charged particles)"

"...Firstly, the convection zone consists of a plasma, i.e. a gas that contains electrically charged particles. Secondly, the plasma in the convection zone is continuously moving around. Since the plasma is moving, the charged particles are moving and we obtain electrical currents. However, electrical currents generate magnetic fields (Ampere's law), as we mentioned above. These magnetic fields in turn generate electric currents (Faraday's law) and therefore we obtain the following loop: electric current - magnetic field - electric current - magnetic field - electric current - magnetic field etc, etc. As long as this loop is not interrupted the Sun will always produce magnetic fields.
However, this is a very simplified picture of the solar dynamo. This picture does not tell you anything about the properties of the motions of the plasma. The flow of the plasma has to fulfill certain properties for the dynamo to work. These properties are:
The flow has to be turbulent. A laminar flow does not work. Thus the motions of the plasma have to look more like the motions of water in a boiling kettle, than the water emerging from your kitchen tap.
The flow has to be fully three-dimensional. The stream of water that emerges from you kitchen tap is only 1-dimensional, i.e. it flows in only one direction. Can you think of a 2-dimensional flow?
The flow has to be helical. By this we mean that the flow has to follow the path of a helix.
