The prototype ZPM 1.0 was activated this morning and should draw a negligible amount of ambient energy from the localized environment into it's structure. At this point in the observation, the shape of the "whirlpool" effect surrounding the ZPM is in the shape of a clockwise rotating torus (imaged above). It was first discovered that a clockwise rotational movement of inflowing positively charged energy along a horizontal x-axis was present. Then a clockwise rotational movement was observed of inflowing positively charged energy along a vertical y-axis was also present. Can't have both, right? But as the shape became more apparent as to what we were looking at, it was speculated that a toroidal field was indeed forming. In an open journal of applied sciences, "..Defining the electron to be a toroidal form of concentrated energy rather than a monopole point-charge, such as used for the Orbital Nuclear Atomic Model (ONAM), leads to a subtly different explanation for electricity and the dynamic nature of electromagnetic fields. The Spin Torus Energy Model (STEM) is used to define the electron and positron, which are then used to explain the nature of electric and magnetic fields, electric current generation from battery and induction sources, capacitor charge and discharge, and superconductivity. STEM supports the notion that free positrons exist within matter, and are equal in importance to electrons: as ONAM makes no provision for positrons within matter, this assertion has wide ranging implications for atomic structure models and chemistry."
Within the experiment area of the prototype ZPM, energy is accelerated the closer to the crystalline surface but acts similarly to a whirlpool in which there is a null zone area directly above the ZPM. The energy at the top of the torus, is in a clockwise rotation but sloping ever toward the ZPM. As an addendum to the observation, is that the energy is more positively charged than our reference point being used, which surprised some here as it was expected that negatively charged energy would result from the loss of bonded positively charged energy. The plans are to let the ZPM sit for the next several hours and continue to draw in what amount it can before more deeper analytics are made. That's about it, am heading out for a morning burrito before checking back in on the project's progress. Oh, one last thing.. temperature reading of the ZPM remains constant, if that would'ov been a concern for some of you. There is no distinguishable temperature reading of the energy our instruments can detect as acceleration increases the closer it approaches the ZPM through the torus shape in which the ambient energy flows. Also the image is an approximation which I came up with, based on feedback from what was picked up on from the localized environment surrounding the ZPM. To what we can initially determine, there is no exterior threshold of the torus shape. Similar to a whirlpool in an ocean.. there is no outer defined boundary, simply a ever decreased effected area. As you can see in the image, there is no (red) instruction control crystal and no (green) "butterfly valve" output control crystal. Simple testing the theory that a zpm is feasible (however inefficient it may turn out to be). Opposite from the regular type ZPM which you may be accustomed to, that draws vacuum energy from a created pocket of subspace within the crystalline energy envelope cavity. This prototype draws ambient positively charged energy from the localized environment exterior to the crystal construct.
And in regard to Lorenz hypothesis of the "butterfly effect", which is an early expression of chaos theory that looks at the way complex systems are highly sensitive to initial conditions and are thus extremely unpredictable. The testing being performed is within a positive pressure controlled laboratory setting. At the time of his initial assessment on weather forecasting back in the day, Lorenz found that meteorologists were using linear statistical modelling to forecast weather and often failed. In developing a nonlinear model of the atmosphere for climate modelling, Lorenz created what is called a Lorenz attractor showing small changes in starting conditions result in huge changes to the paths each line takes, yet the lines still fall within the confine of the same shape.. providing order within the chaos. Each starting point leads to a unique evolution that the individual lines within the attractor are highly unstable in their trajectories. However, the attractor shows that as a whole, the system is stable. There are no possible starting point within the attractor that can lead to a trajectory that escapes from it. This apparent contradiction is at the heart of chaos theory. In brief, his "butterfly effect" has been addressed in the safeguard implementation of this experiment. There would be more atmospheric variance due to a front door opening in an air conditioned building, than through this test.
And my apologies for stating this, but to stem future fanboy requests for divulging proprietary information or purchasing a working model.. This isn't a popcorn stand and we don't sell jelly donuts. There is much which I cannot share on a public forum, save for postcard generalities. This endeavor, however well-meaning, is monitored for plausible liability reasons. But still the precedent within the franchise was considered enough to warrant the creative expenditure of this.. fanfic. As sometime in 2009, Dr. Nicholas Rush and others placed an actual astro-physical Stargate problem into a video game to see if anyone outside the Stargate Program could solve it. Which Eli eventually did and became a boon to the program and subsequent stranded crew in providing technical relief through his outside-the-box open minded curiosity.
Understanding how the interconnected engineered mechanical structure of a doorknob works, is not a prerequisite to being able to use it. The door is already unlocked, you just have to apply the effort at addressing the next step.. once you figure it out.
