Re: [Vo]:Can Fields Induce Other Fields in Vacuum?
I think the concept of one field generating the other in space as the wave advances is defective. In my way of thinking it is not possible to stop a wave in motion and perform a test of this nature. You would need to travel faster than light to get to an observation point that allows this. I prefer to measure the field parameters at a point removed from the moving charge that initiates the wave. Then I am able to measure the effect of the electric field and magnetic field as it passes by at the speed of light. There is no reason to assume one vector generates the other. I came to the realization years ago that there is actually only one parameter defining both fields. Charge and its movement is the key. Current is proportional to the first derivative of the spatial position of charge with respect to time(charge velocity). Radiation is related to the charge acceleration. The magnetic field is determined by the currents in space and time. Everything electromagnetic originates with charge.

Re: [Vo]:Can Fields Induce Other Fields in Vacuum?
OK Clark Kent. I am unafraid of controversy to a great extent. Personal attacks are off limits as far as I am concerned because they seldom settle issues and tend to shut down conversation. Feel free to question any assertions that I make and I will return the pleasure! One thing this guy is not worried about is strange unknowns. I spent a large portion of my career solving complex electronic design problems and realize that a great deal is to be discovered that way. The more weird the problem, the more it interests me. On many occasions the engineers working for me would have issues arise that would tie them in knots for days. The circuits would behave in a few unusual ways, but the guys would just put these effects aside and figure they were not related to the issue at hand. When they would finally give up, I would be asked to help and generally within a couple of hours the problem would be resolved. I always gave them time to learn before jumping in to further their knowledge. I am a bit slower these days, but still have plenty of fuel remaining to attack interesting phenomena. So, mister reporter, bring on the strange systems and I will gladly give them my thoughts. I might be wrong most of the time, but on occasion, I hit a home run. I must say that any scientist that wants to win a prize or change the world had better not run when things act strange. That might be the gift they had hoped for.
