Abstract

An experiment performed by Edwards et. al. demonstrates the existence of a negative potential on the surface of a superconducting wire which was proportional to the square of the slowly diminishing current in the wire. Conventional electromagnetic theory predicts that this potential should not exist. It is proposed here that the potential results from a force on a charge at rest caused by a magnetic field in motion.
