Stupid question about longitudinal EM waves
Stupid question about longitudinal EM waves
(OP)
I was never interested in EM field theory. I made that exam decades ago, and with great trouble. This longitudal/scalar electromagnetic wave scientific crackpotism I came across recenty (http://www.cheniere.org/briefings/DoDPriore/), provoked some questions anyway.
- Are longitudinal EM waves theoretically possible at all (I'd say they aren't, but I'm not too sure)?
- How does EM field between infinite capacitor plates looks like? Where does magnetic component (if any) point to?
- Or alternatively- how does EM field around electrically charged, periodically inflating and deflating sphere looks like? Again- where does magnetic compnent point to?





RE: Stupid question about longitudinal EM waves
A wave in which the direction of displacement at each point of the medium is the same as the direction of the propagation.

Ummm... OK, let me click around your links little bit ... Tesla Howitzer!? Oh my goodness! http://www.cheniere.org/books/part1/teslaweapons.htm
And what about this one http://www.rhfweb.com/scalarwv.html ? Ok, a little click here, a little click there, and ...
Mind and thoughts indeed!
Oh, well... I guess I got the point. Infinite capacitor plates are not feasible, and electric field around charged inflating/deflating sphere does not change. Right?
