Abstract

The growing interest in a thorough revision of the tenets of classical electrodynamics compels us to reconsider the torque-production mechanism presently applied to homopolar machines founded "indistinctively" on Ampere or Grassmann?s basis. Recent crucial experimentation definitively rules out the latter rationale for its physical inconsistency.
