Subject: #104 happy to report a magnet levitation of Meissner Effect on a Wimshurst generator capacitor-current; new textbook: "How Superconductivity really works; nanosecond Capacitor discharge current"

Today is a happy and proud day for me in experimentation. I never
realized how time consuming experiments
can run, although I enjoy every moment of the experimenting. Alot of
trial and error and alot of having to
fabricate things to run the experiment.

I built a vinyl table above the electrodes of the Wimshurst in order
for the Capacitor current to not interfer
with the suspended iron magnetized lathe shavings. Then I placed
various masses of these magnetized
iron shavings into the vinyl boat. Then I ran the Wimshurst and
watched as the sparks jumped the gap.
And as expected, after many trials, that that smaller shavings were
ejected out of the boat. However, the
shavings of a given mass were levitated in the vinyl boat. This is the
pure diamagnetism as the Meissner
Effect.

Also, I fetched a compass needle to see if the Oersted experiment is
repeated with the Wimshurst Capacitor
Current. I was not expecting any deviation from the Oersted experiment
of the 1800s in that Oersted used a
battery current which is a DC current and not a Capacitor Current. And
as expected there were no deviations
as the compass needle went perpendicular to current flow. But I need
to experiment further with the compass
needle with a known perovskite superconductor, for I have the hunch
that there is some substantive difference
in the deflection of the compass needle by a Capacitor Current that is
far different from Oersted's DC current
deflection. I say this because if a Capacitor Current is pure
diamagnetism and a DC current is not
pure diamagnetism, then a substantial difference should come of the
Oersted Experiment.
