To add to the discussion board and along the same lines,....how would free moving ions behave (i.e, in the atmosphere) if there were a pulsating magnetic field emanating from a source within which there was a static electric field,....assuming of course that it could be regulated to be constant ( or not). In other words, if I can share the visualization,....imagine there is a construct made up of three spherical conductive objects that are on the same plane at the corners of an equilateral triangle. On top of this construct, there is a source that generates a magnetic field that can be pulsed at will at variable degrees of intensity,....kinda like a solenoid. How would the free moving atmospheric ions act upon the "construct" if there was a constantly changing magnetic field emanating from this source along which,...from the above thread, the ions can move perpendicularly across? My thinking tis that the "electrostatic" force can attract the ions of opposite charge while the oscillating magnetic field can accelerate the ions toward the electrostatic spheres. The magnetic field, having both north and south poles will channel the ions through the center of the triangle. The idea is to accelerate the groomed ions from the atmosphere through the centre of the solenoid/equilateral-electrostatic electric field so that there is a net force on the object that is greater than gravity. Do you see where I am going with this? Okay,..so call me "out there". I need to go back to school on this one, but I believe there is a way to use the "energy" all around us in a useful and productive manner. The question still stands,....what happens under those circumstances? Thx,...Patman
