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 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?

Here's the original:
I said:
"When an electron has velocity the total electric field increases over that of a stationary electron."
You said:
"No, it doesn't. That would violate Gauss's Law."

I showed it doesn't. When a voltage is applied to a wire the electrons move to counter the applied electric field. It is the electric field of the motion of the electrons that counters the applied field of the battery to drive the net internal field of the wire to zero. The is the same mechanism that drives the tangential E field on the surface of a conductor to zero for wave reflection calculations. I stand by what I said, the motion of charge creates an E field in addition to the static E field of a charge. This E field is in the direction of the charge and has a divergence of zero, unlike static charge. You had said I was wrong here. I don't believe so.

The mechanically rotating ring of charge, with the charge statically fixed to the ring also shows this. The movement of charge here is driven mechanically and an additional E field results in the direction of the charge motion. Faraday demonstrated this with moving polarized dielectrics. If you disagree, fine. It would be very helpful to show me where I'm wrong.

I'd like to learn more about the calculation and mechanism of the generation of gravitational waves. You seem quite knowledgeable on this subject and I'd like to rely on your expertise for references and help on this subject. I'd like to learn how you calculated the field of a propagating gravitational wave. Is it a shear wave, a longitudinal wave or something else? I

Wasn't the ether proven not to exist?
