Thanks that may come into use in this book, but I want to stick with
the
name Capacitor current for it draws the image of building up charge
and then releasing the charge to buildup again.

And the BCS theory did not randomly chose a name of "phonon"
for one of its concepts. And we know that sound waves are
longitudinal waves.

A current certainly has two components
the E wave and B wave. And a wave certainly can be categorized as
longitudinal and transverse.

Now can I categorize all electrical-waves as to these five types?
(1) E-B transverse
(2) E longitudinal
(3) B longitudinal
(4) E transverse
(5) B transverse


Mind you, only the first one is 100% pure whereas the others are
impurity mixes.

Then can I say that a AC current is (1) and a Lightning bolt current
is (2)
and a ferromagnet current is (3) and a Maxwell displacement current
is (4)
and a Meissner Effect is (5)? Is such a classification good and
useful?

I think I can make such a classification that holds meaning because I
can make
a classification similar to the above for Magnetism where we have a
broad range
of different distinct types of magnetism. If we have it for magnetism
then we have
it for electric component of EM

(1) ferromagnetism
(2) paramagnetism
(3) diamagnetism

But where it gets very useful is that we have such an enormously broad
classification
in chemistry of bonds:

(1) covalent
(2) metallic
(3) ionic
.

.

(n)

The logical, and utmost logical of minds, would say, hey, if there is
a large classification
of bonds that are very much different from one another and since bonds
in chemistry are
nothing more than EM force, and since there are many different types
of magnetism,
then, to a logical mind, there should be more than simply one or two
types of current
in Nature.

As I said in an earlier post, when Maxwell sat down to unify the EM
forces with his brilliant
Maxwell Equations, he entered that discovery process with only one
current to cover all
of Nature's currents but the equations themselves forced Maxwell to
leave his equations
with a new and added current which he called the Displacement current.
So the Maxwell
Equations from the start assumed the world had but only one type of
current, and the
equations produced a wholly second and different type of current.

What this textbook is all about is to nail down the true and correct
theory of superconductivity
and that there is a very different type of current that exists that is
not factored into the Maxwell
Equations.

EM current that sends photon messengers to the electrons at the
opposite end of the circuit to
move whereas the current moves at a slow drift speed is the current
used in the Maxwell Equations.

However, there is a current not used in the Maxwell Equations where
the electrons move at
near the speed of light having come from a capacitor discharge.

Perhaps the Maxwell Equations need some revision to allow for an EM
longitudinal wave where
electrons travel near the speed of light.
