In 1953 Albert Einstein wrote to the Cleveland Physics Society on the occasion of a commemoration of the Michaelson–Morley experiment. In that letter he wrote:[1]
What led me more or less directly to the special theory of relativity was the conviction that the electromotive force acting on a body in motion in a magnetic field was nothing else but an electric field. - source wikipedia
If a moving electric charge in a magnetic filed will experience (from its frame ) an electric field, and because the only posible way to interact with magnetic filed are by moving charges doesn't this imply that the magnetic filed in reality and from any frame it is an electric filed ?
If the magnetic field it's actually an electric filed we could find its distribution by watching the forces acting on a test charge that approaches a very long straight current carrying conductor. In this way if the charge is negative it will be deviated in opposite direction and away from the current carrying conductor so we can say that the negative test charge experiences a positive electric field from the direction of the "source " of the current in the conductor and from the space behind it and a "negative" electric filed from the "sink" of the current in the conductor.
This COULD mean that the magnetic filed as we represent it as beeing transversal on the current, is not actually transversal but the real filed COULD BE distributed along the current carryin conductor as an electric filed (that can't be shielded for some reason...) and the transversal magnetic filed of lines COULD BE just an apparence of the iron piling pattern not actually real force filed orientation because the iron piling and magnetic filed interaction its also based on moving charges ...
