Text: Superconductivity phenomena in plasma physics. When standard Lagrangians for charged particles are transformed into Eulerian notation, the Principle of Least Action leads to electromagnetic equations of motion from which Maxwell's equations and the Lorentz force equation are derivable. The new equations are, in effect, the same as the London equations of superconductivity and are found to apply to collisionless, high plasmas. Possible space applications include the Venus flux ropes and Saturn's rings. Thermonuclear applications are anticipated. Flux ropes may possibly be utilizable in developing free energy devices.Plasma conditions are also sites for scalar activity. Logan, Utah: Utah State University. (undated).
