Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

The Maxwell “displacement current ” and the Lorentz “magnetization current” are important in the history of classical electromagnetism, but neither is a current. The popular belief that the former acts as a current is unfortunate since it hides the fact that there is a dual to the Faraday law, namely that a time-varying electric field is accompanied by a magnetic field. The recognition of this as a fundamental law of nature provides a solid foundation for Maxwell’s electromagnetic equations. According to Lorentz, the magnetization current is an average of the motions of electric charges in the atoms of a magnetized material. It is shown here that he was mistaken and that the error has gone undetected for over a century. As a result, the deduction that B and not H is the fundamental magnetic field vector is not substantiated. Key words: Maxwell’s equations, natural laws, Lorentz averaging, B-H controversy 1.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
