You have to do what you apparently thus far have entirely failed to do. You have to have some approximate concept of the size and orientation of the magnetic field you imposed on the target. Removing a nominal or improperly oriented field should of course have no effect whatsoever. That is no guarantee that a field imposed in the manner Letts specifies will work either, but that is not yet a relevant point. Not properly imposing the magnetic field guarantees that the experiment is not properly replicated. Regards, Horace Heffner
