The point here is that if the electrons were to build up (for whatever reason), the sun would not become negative overall, it always stays positive, but it could become more negative than usual, making less protons leave it as they are more attracted back to it than usual. If there is more positive charge building up, then there will be more electrons attracted to restore it back to its original voltage. So it should stay roughly at the same potential.
The key to this model is that gravity itself retains this charge on the sun, which gives rise to the net charge and the resulting current flow.
in order to keep the proposal viable, they'll now have to find a way to close the electric circuit, otherwise, the star would have to charge up until equilibrium is reached - at which point it goes out.
Do you mean by equilibrium it has cancelled out all the charge and is now neutral? or it returned to its voltage equilibrium?

In my opinion the Electric Sun Theory is a brilliant concept.
It reminds me of the relationship certain kinds of plants and animals have with each other, where one rewards the other for survival.
The relationship between Flowers and Bees are well known. For example the Bee collects nectar from a flower for food and the flower benefits because the Bee transports the pollen to the female portion of the plant for fertilization.
Without the sun the planets orbiting it would fly in a straight line. If that were to happen, one day the planet would possibly crash into another heavenly body. By being bound to a central star the planet is safe from collision.
If all the planets stop rotating around their star then the light output must also come to a halt.

Stars like the sun are bombarded BY THE GALAXY. Do you elect to ignore that simple fact?

Here's what you wrote and you insist this is right. I repeat that this is bullshwat. Electron neutrinos? What about muon neutrinos? What about anti-neutrinos? And how come this happens "most of the time"? Sheesh.

Strange Setup: Andromeda's Satellite Galaxies All Lined Up
An unusually high number of galaxies are aligned along a single plane running through the center of the giant Andromeda galaxy. Scientists don't have a theory to explain why.
Galactic cannibalism [ ????? ] or dark matter may be responsible, researchers say. [ ]
Using the Hubble Space Telescope, Eva Grebel and Andrew Koch from the University of Basel in Switzerland found that nine out of Andromeda's fourteen dwarf galaxy satellites reside in a single plane. The plane is about 52,000 light-years wide and is aligned perpendicular to Andromeda's own galactic plane, within which the galaxy's stars orbit about the center.
That nearly 80 percent of Andromeda's satellite galaxy mass is located within a single plane is highly unusual and can't be accounted for by traditional theories of galaxy formation, Grebel said.
Who is bombarding clusters of galaxies?
How come the galaxy is bombarding the Sun and not directly the planets in the Solar system?
Where is the evidence of the tremendous current flowing into the Sun? What part of it?
Why would this current then leave the Sun in a different direction?

Since plasma is highly scaleable if you scale the solar system model up about four orders of size, you would have a similar process with the galaxy. In which there is a flow of current travelling through the centre, where most of the reactions are seen to be taking place. It is basically a simple homopolar motor, or unipolar inductor, and both of these result in rotational motion arrising from direct current input, and is one of the reasons why filaments twist into Birkeland currents. This could explain why all bodies rotate, something lacking from conventional theories.
This model explains excellently the observations of galaxies all lined up, as if attatched by a long string.

It comes from the electric currents following the magnetic fields into the suns poles, but also from particles attracted to it due to its electrical field, from nearly all directions.
But it is, ever heard of cosmic rays?
Originally posted by buddhasystem
Again, there is no evidence of such electron current. The BACKSCATTERING of electrons off the Earth's magnetic field is not it. Please read it again, it's back-scattering. The electrons were flowing outwards form the Sun before being rescattered elsewhere.
Now, the thing is, in the "electric sun" theory, tremendous amounts of cosmic rays are magically concentrated on the Sun, from which they are re-emitted towards Earth. Impossible.

Is it really stated anywhere in ES theory that cosmic rays concentrate on the Sun? That would be interesting but I find it hard to believe, both that the exact statement was made as you seem to imply, and that the process would happen like that anyhow. That would be one hell of a field to grab such high speed particles and change their direction to concentrate on the sun.
OT: BTW, I too worked in cosmic rays, helped to build the worlds largest cosmic ray observatory, the Pierre Auger Observatory, which is based in the Argentine desert. By the time I left for other pursuits it was only half operational, data was just starting to be taken. I slightly infected some of my colleagues who analyze the data to think more openly about the possible origins of cosmic rays, as nearly all of them took the standard view that it was some black hole or supernova process doing the acceleration.

Yup, I subscribe to all that you say. That would take a few impossibilities for this to happen. Why did I mention such concentration? Because the flux of extra-solar particles, as it is measured, is much much smaller than that resulting from solar wind. Please correct me if I am wrong. It would take, therefore, an enormous concentration of the extra-solar flux for subsequent re-distribution into the Solar system, to account for this. One of my questions to Zeuss was, if the Sun is bombarding the Earth and the solar wind is a current, who is bombarding the Sun to provide that current? The answer was that it was "the galaxy". As you pointed out, that's not possible on that scale.

It's great to have you as a part of this discussion! I think that there is a lot to be learned about the ways particles undergo acceleration in both the Sun and extra-solar sources. It's a different thing, however, to claim that electric currents ARE the leading factor in the physics of the Sun, as so patently stated in the term "Electric Sun" and "Electric Universe".
By the way, what do you think of energy production in the outer layers of the Sun, which is claimed in the ES?
Originally posted by Ionized
Actually you seem to be taking what I said out of context, although I was being specific. All that I was pointing out is that specifically cosmic rays have little if anything to do directly with the input to the solar current system. Cosmic rays are in effect stray particles, whereas what we are looking for is a much more concentrated current, in the form of birkeland filaments or plasma sheets
The transmission lines of birkeland filaments and current sheets emit little to no radiation.
The source, movement in space of charges within E-M fields based on far from equilibrium, non-linear, open system processes which have as a feature forms of self-organization.
Sometimes the best place to hide a secret is in plain sight.

That probably relates to the part of the current flowing through a rarified space, and not as much to the situation when it hits the atmosphere of some sort. Then it basically would have no choice but to emit. Does that make sense? You have a sphere, a huge current must get it. We don't see that.
I've heard repeated claims that z-pinch phenomena in outer layers of the Sun result in fusion. If you look at the densities involved, it's impossible to have enough output in that model.
Well, yes. There wouldn't be a field of plasma physics if the behavior of plasma was trivial. It serves no useful purpose to trivialize the physics of stars by claiming these is a magic theory (like EU or whatever) that can explain ALL of cosmology with a couple of simple assumptions.
Just look at the titles of the threads on this topic. Look at the title of this thread.
