Re: quantum of magnetic flux



LP!

I'm lurking (semi) here.

According to CB the SQuI Device counts quanta of flux; would this not imply
that flux is quantized? I can understand how it could be since it's
created by quanta (electrons moving, spinning, and revolving).

bc

P.s. Wait a min. Current is quantized, but flux also varies w/
distance. If it's still quantized, then may be space is?

The SQUID is superconducting; it quantizes the flux, admitting it
in bundles. Even that is not quite correct because of the "weak
link" in the SQUID. The "quanta" sort of ooze in. Current is not
quantized; charge is. Maybe space is quantized, but there exists
no evidence that it is.
