Theory D.
When a battery is connected to a lamp by two wires and the
lamp lights, nothing travels along inside the wires.
(Discovered on May 26, 1976.)

A restatement of
Theory D on 9.4.2021
A long charged capacitor
has energy reciprocating from end to end between the electrodes. See Wakefield.
http://www.ivorcatt.co.uk/x3216b.pdf . If it is
connected at both ends at the same instant, the energy travelling to the left
comes out at the left, and the energy travelling to the right comes out at the
right.
When two parallel
wires are connected to the electrodes of a battery, some of this energy rushes
out, guided by the wires. It is called ExH. If a lamp
is connected at the end of the wires, the lamp receives the energy and lights.
During its
journey, some of the ExH energy turns sideways and
enters the wires, warming them. Using the characteristics of the copper wire
and of space, this energy can be calculated mathematically. This ExH energy dissipated in the wire, similar to the energy
reaching the lamp, has been wrongly thought to be another substance,
electricity. It is not. It is all ExH energy.

(The concept of “skin
depth” is relevant, involving more mathematics, reinforcing the mathematical
artefact, “electric current”.)
All this (“electric current”) has no answer to cattq, http://www.ivorcatt.co.uk/cattq.htm , where the fabrications break down.

It is necessary to
clarify certain details in the present situation. The problem is brought out in
Alex Yakovlev’s Royal Society article when he says; “Theory C, or Catt theory”.
It was a mistake for me to christen the third theory
“Theory C”, since it brought confusion. My defence is perhaps that it was the
third theory, coming after A and B.
Sir Isaac Newton’s Three Laws of Motion are immortal,
but Newton was not. The three laws, not Newton, are what is important. Newton
was merely an instrument for the truth.
Recently I attempted to clarify our situation by
naming the four laws N, H, C and C+.
I now revoke this christening.
The four theories are N, H, C and D. This moves it
away from personalities. The destination is Theory D, not C.
Theory N. The battery delivers current into the wires.
The (electric) current causes the ExH field. The ExH field enters the lamp, and it lights up.
Theory H. (“We reverse this,” Heaviside.) The battery
delivers the ExH energy current between the wires.
The energy current causes the current in the wires. The ExH
energy enters the lamp and the lamp lights. (Some of the energy enters the
wires sideways, and warms them.) The energy which lights the lamp always
travelled in the space between the wires. http://www.ivorcatt.co.uk/x41h.pdf
; “By the way, is there such a thing as an electric current?”
Theory C. The battery delivers the ExH
energy current. The ExH enters the lamp and the lamp
lights. Electric current is not involved.
Theory D. The battery delivers the ExH
energy current between the wires. The ExH energy
enters the lamp and the lamp lights. There is no electric current.

Theory N
Is the normal theory, normal means in this case established,
accepted by the mainstream, accepted by everybody.
The battery delivers electric
current into the wires. The electric current causes or
creates the electric (E) and magnetic (H) field in the space between (or around the
wires?) written ExH. The ExHfield enters the lamp, and it lights up.
Theory H
“We reverse this”, said Heaviside. The battery
delivers electric and magnetic field (ExH),
called energy current between the wires. The energy current causes
the current in the wires. Some of the energy current enters the
wires (when entered in
the wires called current to distinguish it from N,
electric current delivered by the battery or ??) sideways, and
warms the wires. The energy current (ExH) enters the lamp and
the lamp lights. The energy current (ExH) which lights the lamp always
travelled in the space between the wires.
Theory C
When the battery lights a lamp electric current is not
involved. The battery delivers the energy current (ExH) and the energy current lights the lamp.
Theory D
There is no electric current. The battery
delivers the energy current(ExH) between the wires. The energy current
lights the lamp.
--------------------------------------------------------
H, C and D, all 3
are explained by energy current. Energy current (ExH) lights the lamp.
C only excludes electric
current but doesn't negate
its existence.
D Denies existence of electric
current.
N, H, C and D have in
common that the field (ExH) or (field (ExH) between the wires finally lights the lamp,
correct? [Yes. Ivor Catt. 15.3.2020]

Ivor,
If it makes someone
content, I will say that I do not know if Theory D is utter rubbish, and I do
not have the time, means or inclination to try to find out.

Echoing “inclination”
http://www.ivorcatt.co.uk/cattq.htm
“Following our strenuous but unsuccessful efforts many years
ago to resolve the difference between us, I am however not at all
attracted by the
idea of revisiting them!”
Howie
wilfully misrepresents what happened. He disagreed with Pepper, who worked for
him, and not with me. Two careerists disagreed as to the dogma they taught. The
academic mafia have to pretend to be united (and know their subject). The dogma
is replete with internal contradictions, not just cattq. It’s a leaking ship! http://www.ivorcatt.co.uk/x37p.htm

Crimestop means the faculty of stopping short, as
though by instinct, at the threshold of any dangerous thought. It includes the
power of not grasping analogies, of failing to perceive logical errors, of
misunderstanding the simplest arguments if they are inimical to Ingsoc, and of
being bored or repelled by any train of thought which is capable of leading in
a heretical direction. Crimestop, in short, means protective stupidity.
- G. Orwell, 1984, pub. Chancellor, 1984 edn., p225
Our electrical
theory has grown like a ramshackle farmhouse which has been added to, and
improved, by the additions of successive tenants to satisfy their momentary
needs, and with little regard for the future. We regard it with affection. We
have grown used to the leaks in the roof .... But our haphazard house cannot
survive for ever, and it must ultimately be replaced by a successor whose
beauty is of structure rather than of sentiment.
