You are not satisfied with current 'explanations', but you don't even want to look at explanations I'm asking about ... Because. Coronal heating problem is far nontrivial - energy is generated in the center of Sun, its surface is 'warm', while when you go away it becomes hotter and hotter up to 200 ...

Quantization of flux going through superconducting ring literally means that it is some integer multiplicity of magnetic flux quantum : 2.067 833 667(52)×10^-15Wb ... it's strongly related to Aharonov-Bohm effect ... As I understand you are asking why temperature in center is more than at surface? S...

Do you also disagree that magnetic flux going through superconducting ring is quantified? Look at pictures of corona ( like here ) - why there are bright lines on them? Why corona has millions of kelvins, while the surface only thousands? Why in magnetic reconnection article there is written "This p...

Is magnetic flux quantified only near superconductors?
Quantization of magnetic flux going through superconducting ring is explained that along this loop, quantum phase (order parameter in this case) has to return to the initial phase, so it makes integer number of full rotations - this number determines the total magnetic flux going through this loop,...

In vacuum the only remaining interactions are electromagnetism and gravity, so as long we are not interested in precise field configuration very near the center of electron, it should be completely enough to consider only essential effective parameters (moments) - mass (monopole), electric (monopole...

Nik, read the abstract at the bottom of physorg article - they wanted to make it looks great, but in fact it's only about finding new limit for electric dipole moment of electron. But it's nice they write about 'shape' of electron - points doesn't have shapes ... happyjack, you say that because of u...

This article doesn't even mention what it is really about ( here is better ) - finding a better limit for electron's electric dipole moment - I agree that most probably it should be zero. But we also know that electron has spin and corresponding magnetic dipole moment - directed properties, which wo...

I briefly looked through that discussion, but I have to admit that as I've written - I rather don't treat such explanation seriously. About the hypothetical need of enriched nickel, there are some arguments to think about it, like: - higher isotopes have larger radius and so the proton doesn't have ...

I don't know much about plasma physics, but it seems that hot plasma group he worked in for almost 50 years (and was its chief for almost 20 - table on 7th page of this review paper ) indeed worked on some kind of Focus Fusion approach - e.g. here he writes that in 1959 they started to work on 'rod ...

Giorgio, I don't think it applies only to cold fusion case - here is his Science News letter from 1959 about supernovas - from his book (which unfortunately is in polish). On 162-163 page of this book he indeed defend cold fusion, using arguments like: - energy balance in our planet - they couldn't ...

I completely agree that we shouldn't just ignore the problem of 'gluing' electric field toward the center of e.g. electron: - because of singularity, the interaction cannot be just pure electromagnetism - it has to deform (e.g. into weak/strong interaction), - if field in vacuum would enforce that c...

Electron's magnetic moment in plasma/fusion physics?
We usually look at electron as just a charged point, while it has also strong magnetic moment. Papers from good journals of Polish physicist (Gryzinski) who worked on plasma for half a century strongly suggest that this magnetic moment is also extremely important - I'm trying to find some informatio...
