My dictionary says:
"Gauss`s theorem----The summation of the normal component of the
electric displacement over any closed surface is equal to the electric
charge within the surface."

James Clerk Maxwell studied the work of others such as Ampere and Gauss
to develop his equations defining the relationships between fields,
charges, and currents. Maxwell found that dislacement current should
produce radiation the same as conduction current. So he made a
correction to Ampere`s Circuital Law.

Art is right. Discovery is a continuous process. Maxwell`s equations
have now been adjusted for curved space and time.

But, I`ve searched in vain for "gaussian antennas". If Art has an
invention, maybe he will explain.

Richard, I did find a number of references to Gaussian antennas on the
web. i.e.
http://www.flann.com/Products_Home/A.../gaussian.html
The only conclusion I can make is that the radiation pattern appears
to be a Gaussian curve. This does not seem to be related to Art's
postings.

It appears that Art must be on my blocked senders list, since I found
responses to one of my earlier posts on Google's archives.
I could not entirely follow his rational, but
one of his complaints was "I did not provide the polarity
of the patterns". If he is interested I can provide all these data
from the NEC output file; also the NEC code. I would first
need to know his e-mail address in order to remove it from my blocked
senders list.

Regards.
