All electromagnetic phenomenon has a toroidal shaped field
The applications of electromagnetic fields in toroidal geometries range from plasma
confinement to nuclear magnetic resonance. In nature, the magnetic fields created
by planets and starts present also toroidal structure and nontrivial topology of the
field lines

Here, we present a new range of solutions covering the tolopology of the whole torus
knots set and having previous solutions as a particular case. By having the topology
of the torus knots set we mean that initially all the magnetic lines and all the electric
lines stay linked and closed on the surface of a torus and, moreover, when time evolves
we can find numerically field lines knotted as a torus knot. These configurations could
be also important theoretically, as the stability of electromagnetic fields [3] may play a
role in particle theory [4, 5] or even in certain asymptotic limits of string theory [6].
4. Conclusions
In conclusion, we have presented new exact solutions of the Maxwell equations in vacuum such that, at a given initial time, satisfy that all the magnetic lines and all the electric
lines are (n, m) torus knots.
Is the beam coming out of a laser pointer electromagnetic?

Does it have a toroidal shaped field?
is that so hard to imagine?

It's not hard to imagine, but why should anyone imagine, i.e. fabricate things, which are not borne out in experiment?
It's not hard to IMAGINE that I have $1M in the bank, but as a sane person I trust my bank statement.

The square peg just doesn't fit into a round hole, but you're trying to pound it in anyway.

imagine if the length of that beam was the length of the middle of the Torus, which is like a wormhole that connects the north and south pole of the torus.

I didn't ignore the theory and provided more than just an image of a dot.

are you planning on answering my question? i'm still waiting for you to give some examples of static objects...

then I provided buddhasystem with a scientifically credible paper explaining the toroidal shape of EM fields, and totally ignores the conclusion or body of the paper entirely, and instead he instead addresses 1 word of 1 sentence which he sees fit to benefit his theory.... = failed attack

I explained how the beam from the laser pointer is a narrow cone that has a tendency to continue for infinity. The torus shape is finite because it has to loop back around to form the donut.
The cone shape extending from the laser pointer does not have to loop back around, so it can be essentially infinite.
Therefore even in a hypothetical proposition, these shapes are inconsistent with each other.
Admittedly the three dimensional representation of the field is more complex than the simple geometry I used, but I did try to simplify a bit for the sake of msm because I felt the true nature of the field was over msm's head at this stage in his understanding.

...and of course the cone is just the envelope of the region where the field is propagating. The actual field like in a momentary snapshot of the field would be perpendicular to the axis of the cone -- and thus bear even less resemblance to anything toroidal.
