Concerning Quantum Phenomenon the Center of the Torus

Click For Summary

Discussion Overview

The discussion revolves around the effects of liquid nitrogen on magnetic fields within a toroidal magnet or inductor, exploring concepts such as superconductivity, zero-point energy, and the potential for increasing magnetic fields through various configurations.

Discussion Character

  • Exploratory
  • Technical explanation
  • Conceptual clarification
  • Debate/contested

Main Points Raised

  • One participant questions whether placing liquid nitrogen inside a toroidal magnet would increase the magnetic field or the toroidal magnetic vector potential, while also referencing zero-point energy and electric dipole moments.
  • Another participant clarifies the placement of the nitrogen, suggesting that if it replaces ferrite material inside the torus, the magnetic field would decrease significantly, while if it is outside, it would have little effect on the field containment.
  • A participant discusses the implications of superconductivity, mentioning the Meissner effect and questioning how the magnetic field's circular flow might relate to quantum alignment and zero-point energy.
  • There is a query about whether mixing liquid nitrogen with iron would enhance the magnetic field.

Areas of Agreement / Disagreement

Participants express differing views on the effects of liquid nitrogen on magnetic fields, with some suggesting it would decrease the field strength while others explore the potential for enhancement through different configurations. The discussion remains unresolved regarding the specific impacts and mechanisms involved.

Contextual Notes

Participants have not fully defined the assumptions regarding the role of liquid nitrogen in the magnetic field context, nor have they resolved the implications of zero-point energy in this scenario.

Concerning Quantum Phenomenon:

I understand the effects of liquid nitrogen on the magnetic fields. However If you ran a tube of liquid nitrogen in the center of a torus magnet or toroidal inductor - would the magnetic field increase, toroidal magnetic vector potential increase. (Zero-point energy) (Electric dipole moment)? Are there any papers on supper conducting torus magnets?

I have a hard time piecing together what you are asking. Where exactly is the nitrogen? Inside the torus (thus replacing the usual ferrite material) or outside, going through the hole in the middle?
If option 1, your magnetic field will drop massively since nitrogen will nowhere near capture the magnetic field like a ferrite material does. If option 2, its virtually irrelevant what is on the outside, as the very point of a toroidal inductor is to contain the field inside the torus.

How does zero-point energy play into this?
 
Concerning option 1. The nitrogen is inside the coil, inside the solenoid.

I understand superconductivity zero electrical resistance and expulsion, ejection of magnetic fields (Meissner effect).

Does the circular flow of a magnetic field, flowing north to south, around the electromagnetic field enter some quantum alignment, polarization, Zero-point energy, lowest possible energy also called quantum vacuum zero-point energy.

What keeps a magnetic field perpetuating?

Would liquid nitrogen mixed with iron increase the magnetic field?
