| Subject: RE: Bearden's MEG 
      PATENT ??  Date: Fri, 29 Mar 2002 22:15:09 -0600 
        
        Dear Vlad, 
        
          
        
        The only thing 
        necessary to answer is item 7, and we will point out that we use a 
        scheme where the magnitude of the collected output energy depends on the 
        rate of change of the input energy, not the magnitude of the input 
        energy. 
        
          
        
        He has only read the 
        first patent since the second one is still processing; a continuance has 
        also been filed, and a second PPA is already filed, to be turned into a 
        second patent or change to the first.  We now see two additional patent 
        applications to be filed, because of the rich physics that gets 
        invoked.  So the first patent does not yet completely describe the MEG, 
        but only one part of it. 
        
          
        
        One does not get 
        overunity from an ordinary transformer. Yet a PART of the MEG has a 
        transformer function, altered so the output energy magnitude does not 
        depend on the input energy magnitude, but on the rise time and decay 
        time of the input signal pulses. But that's only part of it. 
        
          
        
        We have stated quite 
        clearly in several releases that the core material (covered in our 
        second patent) enforces the Aharonov-Bohm effect.  It localizes and 
        holds the magnetic B-field of the permanent magnet -- and perturbations 
        -- inside the core itself.  That effect is not in electrical engineering 
        and classical transformer theory at all, but it is in thousands of 
        papers in the hard physics literature.  It's good physics, but not yet 
        included in electrical engineering.  Yet the AB effect does appear in 
        the sophomore physics book that the electrical engineer studies.  He is 
        just led to believe it has absolutely nothing to do with electrical 
        power systems.  He is led to believe wrong.
         
        
          
        
        By localizing ALL the 
        magnetic B-field flux from the permanent magnet in the core material, we 
        have all the normal magnetic B-field energy from the permanent magnet 
        handy in that core location to work with. In addition, nature freely 
        adds the curl-free magnetic vector potential A in the space outside the 
        core.  So we have that ADDITIONAL A-potential energy --- freely 
        furnished by the vacuum itself --- to work with OUTSIDE THE CORE as well 
        as the normal magnetic field INSIDE THE CORE. 
        
          
        
        Don't worry; quantum 
        field theory already assumes a gauge freedom axiom, which further 
        assumes the ability to FREELY change the potential -- and therefore the 
        potential energy --- of any EM system at will.  Without "paying" for 
        it.  In the real world, one may have to pay a little switching and 
        gating costs, but ONE DOES NOT HAVE TO PAY FOR THE INPUT ENERGY ITSELF, 
        CONTRARY TO EVERYTHING THE ELECTRICAL POWER ENGINEER IS TAUGHT AND 
        IMBIBES WITH HIS MOTHER'S MILK, SO TO SPEAK (to borrow a phrase from 
        Einstein). 
        
          
        
        We then perturb both 
        the confined B-field and the external A-potential.  Check it out, each 
        perturbation produces an electric field, proportional to the TIME RATE 
        OF CHANGE of the perturbation energy, NOT to the 
        magnitude of the 
        perturbation energy.  The time rate of change of the electric fields 
        then produce magnetic fields, and so on as expected. 
        
          
        
        So we can make large 
        EM field outputs from small EM energy input, by simply adjusting the 
        input wave form's rise time and decay time. 
        
          
        
        We are able to use 
        both the perturbed B-field flux, as in a normal transformer, and the 
        additional perturbation fields produced outside the transformer.  We can 
        easily increase the magnitude of the generated perturbation fields 
        without increasing the magnitude 
        of the input energy. 
        
          
        
        The usable output 
        energy then depends on how much of that greatly increased EM field 
        energy we then intercept and collect, from these greatly increased 
        PERTURBATION fields.  Since the magnitudes of the perturbation fields do 
        not depend on the magnitude of the input energy, then the magnitude of 
        the collected field energy does not depend on the magnitude of the input 
        energy. 
        
          
        
        We run that by again:  
        In the MEG, the magnitude of the output energy does not depend on the 
        magnitude of the input energy.  That's totally in violation of ordinary 
        transformer theory. 
        
          
        
        In short, we bypass an 
        ordinary transformer's necessity of dissipating as much energy in the 
        primary section as is dissipated in the secondary section.  That's 
        because a large part of the secondary fields produced in the MEG do not 
        couple back to the input section, in violation of the operation of a 
        normal transformer.  It is that "back coupling" of the secondary fields 
        into the primary circuit"  that enforces such "energy flow conservation" 
        between primary and secondary in normal transformers. 
        
          
        
        In essence, we pay to 
        "switch" and "gate" some free energy flows provided from the vacuum 
        itself; we do not pay to furnish the energy in those flows!  We have an 
        open system far from thermodynamic equilibrium in an active vacuum 
        environment.  The vacuum freely furnishes that energy, and we trick it 
        into furnishing more to the MEG than it furnishes to a standard 
        transformer. 
        
          
        
        The AB effect that 
        tricks the vacuum into furnishing additional EM energy  is not in the 
        classical EM model or conventional electrical engineering circuit 
        theory.  Nonetheless, it is a fact of nature, as witnessed by quite a 
        few thousand physics papers.  Something like 50,000 or so, in the full 
        generalization of the theory.  This has been around since 1959; but its 
        potential for electrical power systems just was not noticed by 
        electrical engineers.  Indeed, the AB effect itself was little noticed 
        by electrical engineers except as an idle curiosity. 
        
          
        
        If one wishes to 
        understand the MEG, one must go beyond U(1) electrodynamics and 
        classical electrical engineering, particularly classical power 
        engineering.  And one must recognize that this first patent is just 
        that: the first of a string of them, with a second already filed.   It 
        is the string that describes the full phenomenology, not just the first 
        patent alone. 
        
          
        
        If one is not familiar 
        with the AB effect, I strongly suggest one study the physics literature 
        dealing with it first, before seriously tackling understanding the MEG's 
        operation. 
        
          
        
        Apparently we were 
        just the first researchers to recognize that the AB effect had great 
        potential for power systems, and particularly for overunity systems of 
        several kinds.  There are already several kinds of MEG, not just one, 
        depending on what is optimized etc. 
        
          
        
        Now we strongly call 
        attention to something else in conventional electrical engineering.  If 
        one merely places a charged capacitor on top of a permanent magnet, so 
        that the E-field of the capacitor is at right angles to the H-field of 
        the magnet, that silly thing will sit there and pour out EM energy 
        indefinitely, perfectly freely, by the conventional Poynting equation S 
        = E X H which has been optimized.  Now either one accepts that the 
        Poynting energy is indeed continuously pouring out and for free, or one 
        should go to all the universities and have them change and destroy the 
        Poynting energy flow theory in electrical engineering which would be 
        false. 
        
          
        
        That's how "difficult" 
         it is to get extra energy flow from the vacuum.  It's a piece of cake, 
        and can be done for a dollar -- anywhere, anytime in the entire 
        universe.  One can easily extract as much EM energy flow as one wishes.  
        That is not the problem!   The problem is in how to intercept and 
        collect it in a circuit, then dissipate it in a load to power that load, 
        WITHOUT using half the collected energy to destroy that source dipole 
        and its free energy flow (in this case, the free S = E X H). 
        
          
        
        That silly little 
        capacitor and magnet already invalidates everything we were told in 
        university about how difficult it will be to ever extract usable EM 
        energy from the vacuum.  There is also a form of the Poynting equation 
        for a single dipole, as just the charged capacitor or the permanent 
        magnet.  It's already known and accepted. 
        
          
        
        Yet engineers believe 
        that they have to input all the EM energy to a circuit that one can get 
        in the circuit to use.  That's not only wrong, it's a bald-faced lie 
        after more than 100 years of that dogma (the Poynting theory dates back 
        to the 1880s). 
        
          
        
        In the MEG, when we 
        perturb the B-flux with shaped perturbation input energy signals, and 
        the A-potential as well, we create large E-fields.  Well, one of the 
        tricks is to get those large E-fields perpendicular (or nearly so) to 
        that powerful B-field of the permanent magnet.  Voila!  Real S = E X H 
        energy flow, which now only requires a little ingenuity to intercept, 
        capture, and use.  Else one has to get after the universities to destroy 
        the Poynting theory!  Well, the Poynting theory is okay, because it 
        works on the bench.  So we get our extra S = E X H in the MEG and 
        Poynting holds okay.   Since we perturb things, get large E-fields, get 
        them correctly oriented with respect to the H-field of the permanent 
        magnet, and we've got a whacking lot of extra S = E X H energy flow to 
        utilize at will.  Also, it's AC and so that is much easier to intercept, 
        collect, and use. 
        
          
        
        A real advantage of 
        the permanent magnet in the magnetic circuit is that the magnetic dipole 
        --- in this case, the permanent magnet --- does not and cannot be 
        destroyed when the magnetic flux returns back through the dipole, as 
        contrasted to a standard closed current loop electrical circuit which 
        uses half the energy collected in the external circuit to destroy the 
        source dipole in the generator.  So our "primary source dipole" is 
        nearly indestructible, so long as no excessive heating or great 
        mechanical shock is received. 
        
          
        
        Now to critique the 
        standard "wisdom" of what powers circuits.  Generators do not power 
        their circuits with transduced input shaft mechanical energy!  Never 
        have, never will.  Instead, they transduce that mechanical input energy 
        into magnetic energy when the rotor rotates.   Every joule of the 
        magnetic field energy internal to the generator is dissipated by forcing 
        apart the INTERNAL charges in the generator between its terminals, to 
        make a source dipole.  And that is all that a generator does.  It makes 
        that source dipole.  That is all that burning the hydrocarbon to make 
        steam to run the turbine to crank the shaft of the generator does.  That 
        is all that building a dam to use hydroturbines to crank the generator 
        does.  That is all that a windmill uses the wind for.  None of all that 
        adds a single joule of EM energy to the external power line.  All of the 
        oil and coal and gas burned, and nuclear fuel rods used, and dams built, 
        and windmills built, have never from the heat energy or wind energy or 
        water energy produced a single joule of energy onto the power line. 
        
          
        
        If the engineers would 
        leave that dipole intact once made inside the generator, a little 
        initial rotation of the generator to get the dipole made ONCE would be 
        all that would ever be needed.  But they use the closed current loop 
        circuit, which forcibly drives every "depotentialized" electron in the 
        ground return line back through that source dipole in the generator, 
        continually destroying the source dipole.  So the engineers have to keep 
        cranking the shaft of the generator so they can keep remaking and 
        remaking the source dipole inside the generator.  No source dipole, no 
        energy onto the external circuit. 
        
          
        
        The source dipole, 
        once made, extracts that energy directly from the vacuum, transduces it 
        into real energy, and passes that real, observable EM energy out onto 
        the external power line to power it.  None of the shaft input energy got 
        transduced to be sent out on the power line. 
        
          
        
        To understand that, 
        please read why Lee and Yang were awarded the Nobel Prize in 1957, for 
        their work in broken symmetry.  One of the broken symmetries long proven 
        in particle physics is the broken symmetry of opposite charges --- such 
        as on the ends of a dipole --- specifically, that source dipole in the 
        generator, once it is made.  That "broken symmetry of the source dipole 
        following from the broken symmetry of opposite charges" has an exact 
        meaning in particle physics, but one that does not even exist  in the 
        electrical engineering departments and in the electrical engineering 
        model.  It means that, once formed, that source dipole continuously 
        absorbs virtual particle energy (virtual photons) from the seething 
        vacuum (the active environment), transduces some of that unusable 
        virtual energy into real EM energy, and emits that EM energy in all 
        directions.  When connected to an external circuit, THIS SOURCE DIPOLE 
        -- ONCE FORMED -- EXTRACTS FROM THE VACUUM AND POURS OUT OF THE 
        GENERATOR TERMINALS A VAST FLOOD OF EM ENERGY, FILLING ALL SPACE AROUND 
        THAT EXTERNAL CIRCUIT AND FLOWING GENERALLY PARALLEL TO THEM.  The 
        circuit intercepts a small part of that energy flow in surrounding 
        space, and diverges that part (the Poynting component) into the circuit 
        to power the electrons. 
        
          
        
        Every circuit we ever 
        built, and those built today, are powered by energy directly from the 
        vacuum, via the broken symmetry of the source dipole or dipolarity -- 
        and they always have been and always will be.  Read Gabriel Kron, his 
        never-released "open path" secret is indeed the dipolarity between any 
        two points in a circuit, whether connected or not.  And Kron was one of 
        the most able electrical scientists we ever produced -- some say the 
        greatest. 
        
          
        
        Sadly, there is not 
        now and there never has been a single electrical engineering department 
        in the Western world which understood or taught what actually powers an 
        electrical circuit in the first place.  It isn't the generator 
        dissipating its internal magnetic field energy  or the battery 
        dissipating its chemical energy.  Yet the basis for the vacuum powering 
        the external circuit via the broken symmetry of the internal source 
        dipole has been in particle physics for 45 years, with Nobel Prize 
        awarded.  Inexplicably, it still is not included in electrical 
        engineering, and particularly in power engineering. 
        
          
        
        The 
        Maxwell-Heaviside-Lorentz model used in electrical engineering assumes 
        an inert environment (the vacuum) which has been falsified for more than 
        half a century.  It also assumes a flat local spacetime, which has been 
        falsified by general relativity for approaching a century.  If one 
        assumes the external environment is never active, then one does not 
        model nature, as proven in spades in particle physics. 
        
          
        
        Why our electrical 
        engineering curricula have not been upgraded to incorporate what has 
        already been discovered and proven in particle physics is a giant 
        enigma.  Why the more than a century old U(1) electrodynamics has not 
        been upgraded to include the proven active vacuum energy exchange with 
        the system or the proven local curvature of spacetime energy exchange 
        with the system whenever the energy density changes in a local region 
        such as a power system, is also a giant enigma.  And why we continue to 
        use the Lorentz symmetrical regauging condition --- which arbitrarily 
        discards all those permissible Maxwell-Heaviside disequilibrium systems 
        with active environmental exchange and thus capable of overunity and 
        self-powering, is also a deep mystery.   Lorentz threw out the 
        "windmills in the wind" by putting the windmills in a closed barn, as an 
        analogy!  In short, our electrical engineers are taught to just 
        arbitrarily modify the model to select only those Maxwellian systems in 
        equilibrium with their active environment (the active vacuum). 
         
        
          
        
        To use a phrase from 
        Tesla, such a continuing mess -- with its resulting giant pollution of 
        the biosphere, death of species, rape of the planet, and a coming energy 
        crisis that may destruct many of the national economies --- may be "the 
        most inexplicable aberration of the scientific mind ever recorded in 
        history". 
        
          
        
          
        
          
        
          
        
        Best wishes,
