Text: "Non-inductive electrical resistor". A resistor which is simple, inexpensive, flexible in use, has no residual self inductance or mutual inductance, and is non-reactive at high frequencies. Uses insulated resistive material in the form of a mobius surface with electrical leads attached diametrically opposite each other to the resistive material as a non-inductive resistor. The resistor is not exactly non-inductive. It is "equal and oppositely inductive," which is quite a different thing altogether, since it produces an artificial magnetostatic potential stress in spacetime. U.S. Patent No. 3,267,406. Aug. 16, 1966. Assigned to the U.S. government.
