Bob, that visualization of EVO motion is tremendous. Reminded me of Chi Gung spiralling motions that you do with your arms to generate chi. Coincidence? I think not. So how exactly did Matsumoto figure this all out in 1989? Did ETs visit his lab? It's all so precise. Cheers.

Well - as I said, I think he just bothered to look.

For me, I had worked on simulations of tracks when there was no live tracks. I considered rotational and translational moments on a torus and offset clusters - as Shoulders had seen clusters and we had replicated bead chains in LION. It was the only way I could get close to explaining LION.

But the May 2019 "Videos of Long Lived Plasmoids" from Bogdnanovich et. al. became a critical data point, as they observed translating toroids. They also observed clusters of these where the tori "Rotated around their own and the group common axis" and then translated over a surface.

This fed into the observations of structures on Ohmasa plates and Ohmasa treated metals.

But the critical moment was seeing the live traces in 3D where there is NO intersection with a plane in VEGA videos. This makes it so clear what is going on. Then we had the Solidified individual and cluster tracks. Actually having traces appear out of explosions matches the witness observations of Matsumoto and that is very satisfying.

Then I just had to have a go. What I show in this video is my first attempt tested live in the live stream, I am happy that it shows the modelling approach can produce several of the track types seen to date. I am pretty confident that, with an unknown amount of work, I could simulate all the track types that have been observed - I was confident before we had them on video, but the videos and the comments of Bogdanovich et. al. narrow down the possibilities.

So I need to work on track simulations interacting with a plane and those in free space. But the idea of a collapsing mesh of quantised structures and their interconnected relationships I think will lead us to the solution.

If you look at any bunched electron discharge from a surface protrusion you almost instantly create an electron toroid. See Electron Spiral Toroid Spheromaks (ESTS) and electron power systems patent. What’s more interesting though is how a coherent toroid behaves. A modified of the Gross-Pedolvski eq, used for modelling bosonic, coherent fluids, shows the electron density in the toroid goes toward the ‘ring on ring’ structure. https://twitter.com/ctlaltbtc/status/1491973122257743874?s=21
