There is a complex web of cross-connections between HTSC (high temperature
superconductivity), Weyl fermions, an active aether, copper-oxides, and the
RF resonant cavity thruster of Shawyer et al (the EM drive). The
cross-connections are ill-defined at present and could be coincidental, but
we can take notice of the various links and use that information to steer
research.
This is especially interesting if we can define an "aether" in such a way
that it cannot be discredited. One way is via the theory of Don Hotson. The
epo or BEC is based on Dirac's equation and theories - as is all of Hotson's
"interpretation of Dirac" and this aether-like field consists entirely of
massless electrons, possibly now defined as Weyl fermions, in the context of
massless positronium.
It makes sense to suggest that the Weyl fermion, which has been recently
confirmed as real, is indeed an outlier of the same aether-species of
Hotson. Since the BEC (as aether) is fully contained throughout another more
basic spatial dimension or foundation (which can be "reciprocal space" or
1D) it would not be unexpected to find some of these massless electrons
escaping into our 3-Space, and apparently they are coaxed out of the aether
dimension via various "semimetals" which are also superconductive oxides.
Wheeler's "quantum foam" may be additional evidence of bleed-over from an
epo field into 3-space.
The Meissner effect is usually explained as the expulsion of magnetic flux
by a superconductor in a magnetic field, but that may be a partial
understanding. The phenomenon would be explained differently if we focus on
an aether composed of Weyl fermions as Dirac's sea. This would indicate that
Meissner repulsion can become (at least partly) a Coulomb's Law effect -
instead of only inductive. Probably it is a bit of both and possibly this
combined effect relates to the tiny thrust of the EM drive, where the cavity
asymmetry creates a "wake" of virtual Weyl fermions.
A final piece of the puzzle seems to be that only copper works for the
frustum of the EM drive, which would naturally have a copper oxide coating.
Silver and stainless steel have been tried and don't work. Copper oxides can
become superconductive at high temperature, most often when compounded with
other elements. However, there is evidence of that a thin copper oxide
coating would have some properties of HTSC on a transitory basis.
An interesting detail is the implication that CuO could be a Weyl semimetal
and transient HTSC. CuO possibly only works in a very thin layer which
explains why some cavities work better than others.
It would be most intriguing if transient HTSC can be further linked to the
Weyl fermion and to copper oxide and to reactionless thrust. Don Hotson may
have posthumously shown us the way.
