Scaler waves
Scalar waves represent a suppressed branch of electrodynamics rooted in James Clerk Maxwell's original quaternion equations — later excised by Heaviside and Gibbs. Thomas Bearden documented this erasure explicitly, arguing the truncated vector calculus stripped out the longitudinal, non-Hertzian wave components. Tesla's experimental work at Colorado Springs and Wardenclyffe is widely cited as the first practical demonstration of scalar longitudinal transmission.
Evidence
- Thomas Bearden spent decades arguing that Maxwell's original 1865 quaternion formulation contained terms describing longitudinal waves in the vacuum potential — waves that carry energy without conventional electromagnetic fields.
- Nikola Tesla described what he called 'non-Hertzian waves' or 'radiant energy' propagating through the aether at velocities potentially exceeding the speed of light — claims corroborated in outline by Eric Dollard, who reconstructed Tesla's transmission experiments using analog computation.
- Wilhelm Reich's orgone energy research intersects the scalar literature: researchers like Peter Lindemann and Tom Bearden drew parallels between Reich's accumulator effects and scalar potential gradients.
- Russian scalar weapons research — cited by Bearden in 'Fer-de-Lance' and by Lt. Col. Tom Bearden's briefings to the Army — describes torsion field generators and Tesla Magnifying Transmitter derivatives developed under Soviet black-budget programs.
- When Oliver Heaviside and Willard Gibbs reformulated Maxwell's equations into the four vector equations taught today, Bearden claimed those scalar potential terms were deliberately or carelessly discarded, leaving physics with an incomplete model.
