Re: [Phys-L] Scalar EM Waves



Brian,

I am a little confused with your terminology. All introductory texts show the E and B components of an electromagnetic wave to be "in phase" - but none call them scalar.

Subject: [Phys-L] Scalar EM Waves

I read a magazine article describing a moment when troubleshooting periodic
noise on a physiological amplifier led to this surprising description. I would be
interested in comments.

"Soon, a pattern was discernible. Pulse spacing was a consistent 5.5 seconds.

Remember, this laboratory was about 60 feet underground. The building had
corrugated steel plates as the base, with three reinforced concrete floors up
above. Line of sight with the local radar dish required that you travel through
wet dirt, steel, rock, and reinforced concrete for about two miles at a slight
upward angle to reach the local airport dish. And microwaves will not travel
through any of these materials very well.

Certain types of microwave sources contain a property few engineers know
about -- scalar energy. Scalar electromagnetic waves have the E and B fields
in phase, unlike normal electromagnetic waves where E and B fields are
typically 90 degrees out of phase. There is another interesting characteristic
of scalar waves -- they are not stopped by shielding, even by a Faraday cage.
When E and B fields are in phase, they do not interact with metal molecules
like conventional RF does, which makes shielding useless. Usually, only
distance can stop scalar waves. Based on the waveform period, there could
be only one source of this signal."
