Gauss's law looks at E perpindicular to the surface. The wire, or ion beam has an equal, but opposite E on both ends of the cylinder so it cancels in the integral. The E field that is responsible for the charge movement (whether it causes the charge to move or it is a result of it) exists in addition to the E of the charge and does not affect Gauss's law. You said it does. Please demonstrate.

Please review our exchange. You are the one who said that Gauss's law doesn't apply. All I've ever said is that Gauss's law does indeed apply, and is universal.

Before I correct you any further, perhaps you can tell me where you're going with all this? If you cut to the chase we can both save some time.

So what's your pleasure? Luminiferous Ether? Ritz emission theory? Electric universe? Autodynamics? C-decay?
