(+) which evidently have all to be brought into resonance with one another. The principal circuits (called the "anchor") in which the energy gain probably occurs, consist of metal plates between which transformer coils are connected, the whole being connected to one large coil plate. On each of the single windings on this is coupled a large flat coil (called "field"). These flat coils are interwound in two groups; these groups represent the turns of a transformer. This couples, on one hand, on the flat coils of the other group (as secondary coils), and, on the other hand, on the anchor-plate coil which is placed between them. The third electrically independent circuit (called "directing circuit") regulates this transference. Figure | [not included in the BIOS Report] shows diagramatically and in plan these interwound parts. Figure 2, the so-called basic diagram, shows the connections between these different parts. This basic diagram shows the conditions necessary for self- interruption. In consequence of this arrangement, differ- ent types of currents are created in different conductors (pulsed DC, AC, etc.). The transformer coils, connected between the anchor plates, are connected in a peculiar way through thin-per- manent magnet rods. Their main object seems to be to pre-magnetise the transformer cores. It is, however, very probable that they are also connected with the Barkhausen effect... current is passed through one of these coils, acting as pri- mary, the residual magnetism of the steel rod is strength- ened during one half-cycle through the magnetism induced in the core; during the other half it is weakened. If now the other winding is connected in series with the pre-magnetised steel rod (as secondary coil) in such a way that the secondary current must pass through the magnet, one half-cycle of the secondary current must be more or less subdued; in other words, a rectifying effect must be created. It may be remembered that, according to measurement by Profs Kloss and Schumann, a high-frequency pulsed direct current (about 180 kc) is flowing in the output resis- tance of the apparatus, for the creation of which no other explanation is possible. Another experiment with two double-wound solenoids, con- nected in series, revealed that "in such a secondary circuit a con- siderable DC component exists which can be strengthened by means which we shall not go into here...". Experiments were con- ducted with the plate and flat coil unit to test their interactions: As the plates are not only charged as condensers but also have directed currents passing through them, it had to be assumed that their mutual influences not only consisted of a condenser effect but that they also created a magnetic field... It appeared that the Ankertrakte AC or BD are not all to be considered as oscillating units, but that the single group systems, consisting of plate to anchor coils to plate, already represent independent oscillation circuits. According to this, the apparatus contained ten such oscil- lation circuits... In order to make the apparatus work, the harmony of all oscillating circuits in their individual fre- quencies would evidently be necessary, at least within cer- tain limits determined by the suppression in question... In his report, Coler also described the following simple, signifi- cant experiment: Given, a solenoid consisting of two windings, one upon the other, of the same length and number of turns, enclos- ing a soft iron cylindrical core. Firmly attached to one end of the core is a pre-magnetised steel rod. If an alternating Figure 5. NEXUS - 47 OCTOBER - NOVEMBER 1998
