Field Dynamics

Section 2. Fields and Waves

Suppose now that the observer likes to change the charge level of a moving body. What happens that way?

As explained above, the observer cannot detect an electric field when there is an equal level of positive and negative field at a given point because of the limitation of his measuring instrument.

Therefore, he can detect a field only in one case when the value of a field of one sign becomes unequal to the level of the field with the opposite sign.

The following figure shows that case graphically.

Field dynamics with waves

In that case, the observer associates the reference frame with the moving body. That is the most "natural" way of measurement for the human observer. He has two charges in the moving body: positive and negative. The body keeps an immovable location at the point CA in the observer-bound reference frame. Positive charges produce a positive electrical field with level PV. Negative charges produce a negative electrical field with level NV (not shown in the figure).

The observer starts to change the body's charge. He can change only the negative charge because positive charges stay at the nodes of the crystal lattice and cannot be moved without destroying the body. Therefore, only electrons with their negative charge can be moved to and from the body.

The observer connects a device (the generator) to the body that controls that process. The generator starts to pull electrons from the body, causing the volume of negative charge to drop. That process takes some duration, D1. After that, the body has a negative charge level of NV1.

That level is lesser than the level of positive charge (PV). Therefore, the measuring instrument detects the electrical field around the body. As mentioned above, the observer uses an instrument that detects the magnitude and direction of electrical force produced by the field to the test charge.

Moreover, that action changes the disturbance of the medium. As a result, the medium starts to propagate the change from the body in all directions. As mentioned above, propagation has a constant speed in the medium. But the body also moves in the medium. Therefore, that motion gives two vectors of speed: one disturbance-to-medium relative motion and another body-to-medium relative motion. Both motions appear independently of each other.

Because of those two vectors of motion, the forward-going disturbance (direction CA-C2) has a lesser speed of motion in the body-bound (observer-bound) reference frame that the observer uses for observations in comparison with disturbance going in the opposite direction (CA-C3). Therefore, disturbance made by the generator also uses the same law of propagation. As a result, deviation of the "neutral" initial condition of the field causes propagation in the medium with the same difference in speed.

The generator starts to pull electrons back as soon as the body reaches the level of the negative value of NV1. That process takes some duration, and the body restores an equal number of positive and negative charges. The generator works further and raises the level of negative charges to NV2. In that case, the measuring instrument detects a negative electrical field around the body. As explained above, the instrument can detect the field in only one case when the body contains an unequal number of charges of opposite signs.

The generator works further and changes the level of negative electrical charges again. In that case, it pushes them back from the body. It restores the equilibrium of electrical charges in the body later. That process also takes some duration. As a result, disturbance caused by the generator makes its propagation in the medium in all directions again.

However, the motion of the body makes propagation unequal in all directions. The figure shows two opposite directions: forward and backward. As a result of body-to-medium relative motion, any type of disturbance "shrinks" in the forward direction and "expands" in the opposite direction (or backward direction).

Therefore, the exact duration of the disturbance caused by the generator makes two electrical waves in the medium with unequal length. Those waves are shown in the figure as waves with red and blue elements, which show positive and negative values detected by the measuring instrument. Those electrical waves are shown in the figure as a wave between points X1-X2 and between points X3-X4. As you can see, the length of the first (or forward wave) equal to X2-X1 is lesser than the length of a wave moving in the opposite direction (X4-X3).

That way of action clearly shows this. The measuring instrument located at point C2 shows no readings because the net force keeps zero value because of the equal level of positive and negative electrical fields (which cause forces FC2N and FC2P to be equal to each other).

The same measuring instrument shows some readings at point C1 because the net force becomes unequal to zero at that point. Therefore, it shows some readings only between points X1 and X2.

That situation led to a massive problem in 20th-century physics because zero readings of the measuring instrument at other points were misunderstood as the absence of anything, including the continuum itself.

In other words, such a straightforward interpretation of measurement led to the illusion that the electrical wave interacts with nothing else during its propagation in “so-called space.”

As a result, a category that reflects that process in the human mind possessed an attribute of “propagation in free space that does not contain anything.” It looks bearable for a while. However, later research in the same area raised a massive question about some medium that supports the propagation of such waves. Therefore,

There is a fundamental question here. Is it possible to detect such distortion that depends on the direction of motion? That question has a positive answer. Further development of measuring instruments led to the decision that waves are easier to detect than fields. Researchers possessed some advanced instruments, which helped them conduct measurements impossible in the past. Using those sophisticated instruments, researchers came to the Aurora Experiment.
