You realize that in standard physics, the (negative) electron has a (positive) anti-particle, the positron?
Positron-emission tomography (PET) imaging is a very useful technique in medical imaging:  when a radioactive nucleus in a "radiopharmaceutical" (a compound containing a radioactive element that goes where the doctor wants it to go) emits a positron (positive beta decay), it doesn't go very far at all in your body before it collides with a regular electron, and the mutual annihilation results in two photons (gammas) that head off in opposite directions.  Temporal coincidence between two gamma detections in area detectors on opposite sides of your body therefore defines a line through your body and the accumulation of many such lines localizes where the radiopharmaceutical is concentrated in the body.

Interesting. An electron is a photon that has bitten its own tail & formed a loop, the positive em radiation from the photon being annihilated inside the loop, the negative em radiation being emitted gives a negative charge (Williamson).  A positron has a different kind of twist, & it is the negative charge that is annihilated inside the loop (Williamson).

Elektons have a negative charge koz the em radiation emitted into the wire is absorbed or annihilated or reflected or something. I think reflected. I think that the reflected em radiation has lost the positive part of its em radiation. I suppose that it aint impossible that an elekton can have a positive charge, which would make it an anti-elekton (ie a positon). But i dont need anti-elektons, all i need is that there are fewer elektons on one plate than the other.

For someone describing their own (new) theory, you seem very unsure of things. Or how things fit together. In fact, the only thing you seem sure of is that everyone else is wrong. Somehow.

Deciding on wrong is easy, one strike is out. Old (electron) electricity can't explain how insulation lowers the speed of electricity on a wire from c/1 to 2c/3. Hence old (electron) electricity is out. Plus it is out for lots of other reasons.

Measuring the speed of electricity on a threaded rod compared to non-threaded rod would be the most critical test of my new (elekton) elekticity, i say that the speed will appear to be reduced by exactly the extra distance (ie i say that the speed will not be reduced, i say that the distance will be increased).

Bob at RSD Academy needs to measure the exact nature of the sharp transient spike of current in his inductor.
Brian at AlphaPhoenix needs to tell us the details of the rising transient near his positive terminal.

It could be this, or that, or the opposite, or both at the same time or nothing but everything or something.  :-DD :-DD

Man, no wonder Steinmetz thought aetherists were all cowardly loons.  :-DD
