I haven't been following many threads on this forum besides my own, but JacMac shared his bio at
https://www.thunderbolts.info/wp/forum3/ph ... 5981#p5981 lately, so I decided to check out some of his other stuff briefly. And this looks like a good place to chime in. I also recommend others here share a bit of their bios in my Members' Bios thread at that link, so we can all get a little better acquainted. Michael Mozina writes quite a bit on this board, apparently, and he, Brant Callahan and Charles Chandler and I had some good, long discussions about the electric sun model in 2012 or so. I was not knowledgeable about the subject to speak of, but all three of them were, so I learned a lot from their discussions, and I contributed by asking quite a few questions. It was quite a coincidence that all three of them had independent views, but all three shared the belief that the Sun is a cathode, instead of an anode. Brant and Michael both considered the Sun to be made of solid iron just under the photosphere. Brant thought it was powered by aether from the galactic center, while Michael thought it was powered by a neutronium core. Charles thought it was powered by mostly current-free double-layers. Michael's model was similar or identical to Oliver Manuel's iron sun model. They're probably not actually identical. That's hard to come by. (Brant left the forum a few years ago, at least as Upriver. I had a thread at that time to explain his Aether Battery Iron Sun model, in which he answered my questions about it.) I ended up deciding that Charles' model was most realistic. He has numerous papers at
http://qdl.scs-inc.us/?top=6031 . All three models consider the Sun's power source to be internal "batteries", instead of external wiring to some unknown generator. Michael and/or Charles mentioned that external sources of power should show strong magnetic fields easily detectable, so there appears to be no credible evidence for external wiring (i.e. plasma filaments etc). I agreed with Charles that an iron sun should short out any electric currents, so there should be no currents going from an iron shell into the photosphere and back down to the shell. I didn't think there's any good evidence for the existence of neutronium for Michael's and Oliver's models.

We shall disagree then about the chromosphere being a DL. I am not set on the anode OR cathode nature of the sun though. You may recall I have proposed that the inner solid body below the photosphere is a PSUEDO node. It acts like a node because it is charged by the external plasma, including the high energy, charged and neutral particles, we have discussed in other posts.
The solar core is not charged by a separate strong current coming in at the poles, IMO, as described in the Alfven circuit diagram, but is charged through the current carrying chromosphere DL which surrounds the entire photosphere. The core might be either a psuedo anode or a psuedo cathode; I have not tried to figure that out.
So, JacMac and company, what do you have against Charles' model, linked above? Or will the real electric universe please stand up?
