DRIVING SOLAR WINDS. “The solar wind is powerfully affected by magnetic events on the sun, as is the effect of the solar wind on earth. The magnetic sector structure of the wind, the turbulence, the standing shock waves, and the occasional blast wave from a flare all owe their existence to magnetic conditions in the sun.” https://lnkd.in/eYiqnNnc View in LinkedIn

DECENTRALIZED INTELLIGENCE. “Andrew Adamatzky has made significant strides in developing real applications for liquid computing (2019), fungal computing (2018), and slime-mold based “physarum machines” (2010). Unconventional computing expresses alternative modes of intelligence and demonstrates that a nervous system is not necessary to fuse sensorial inputs, process information, and make decisions.” https://lnkd.in/eb8yGxmV View in LinkedIn

COSMIC PARTICLE ACCELERATOR. “The occasional intense x-ray and ultraviolet radiation from the sun are a product of solar activity, and hence, of magnetic fields. The bursts of x-rays and the occasional gamma-ray burst are caused by the collision of fast electrons and atomic nuclei with thermal nuclei, after acceleration to high speeds by the magnetic field activity that makes up the solar flare.” https://lnkd.in/eYiqnNnc View in LinkedIn

MAGNETIC SUNSPOTS. “The entire sunspot cycle with its quasiperiodic cycle of 11 and 22 years is a magnetic phenomenon. The magnetic fields on the sun represent a diversion of less than 10(-4) of the total solar output, yet they are responsible for qualitative effects on the environment in space and on earth.” https://lnkd.in/eYiqnNnc View in LinkedIn

CONTEXTUAL EFFECTS. “The magnetic field may refrigerate its surroundings, as in the sunspot where the temperature is reduced to two-thirds the surrounding 6000 K. Or it may cause intense heating, as in the enhanced chromosphere and corona above regions where magnetic field emerges through the surface of the sun.” https://lnkd.in/eYiqnNnc View in LinkedIn

ASSUMED PARITY. “Maxwell’s equations have not been critically tested over large astrophysical dimensions, but are applied without hesitation to the earth, the sun and the galaxy.” https://lnkd.in/eYiqnNnc View in LinkedIn

GENERATOR OF COMPLEXITY. “Once the energy is invested in fields, the possibilities for further complexity are almost limitless.” (Read carefully and contemplate!) https://lnkd.in/eYiqnNnc View in LinkedIn

HISTORY. “In 1864 Maxwell unified electricity and magnetism in his celebrated electromagnetic equations, and 40 years later Lorentz extended the ideas to relatively moving frames of reference, which were incorporated into Einstein’s special theory of relativity in 1905.” https://lnkd.in/eYiqnNnc View in LinkedIn

MAGNETISM AS A SYNDROME. “The magnetic field is a syndrome, composed of a number of effects that occur in combination. It is a collection of effects, to which we have attached a name, whose effects extend over space.” https://lnkd.in/eYiqnNnc View in LinkedIn
