Meyl-Konstantin: central claims

Project: Prof. Dr.-Ing. Konstantin Meyl (Furtwangen University; "1st TZS" transfer centre; INDEL publishing). 24 documents, 2000-2016. All text is readable; no document was skipped. This file states what the documents claim. It gives no verdicts.

Source gap and coverage note

  • The central derivations are readable, but in the 657-page 2003 textbook (Meyl - Scalar Waves (first Tesla physics textbook for engineers) (2003).pdf) the text layer contains none of the equations. After the QE remediation (2026-10-08) the deep readers have covered, with page images where equations or figure numbers matter: ch.5 (PDF pp.85-105), ch.7 (pp.147-182), ch.8.2-10 (pp.183-241), ch.11-13 (pp.242-294), ch.14-18 (pp.295-400, text layer only; figures not rendered), ch.19-20 (pp.401-455), ch.21-26 (pp.456-545), ch.26-29 (pp.546-602) and ch.27.11-30 (pp.575-654). Still digest-only in the textbook: ch.1-4 (pp.1-84) and ch.6 (pp.106-146; the same argument is in Objektivitaetstheorie 1 and 2, which were deep-read). Neutrino Power is now deep-read in full (pp.1-302); pp.133-222 were added on 2026-10-08 (orchestrator fix), with page images for the formula and figure pages. The Wiesbaden lecture (Skalarwellenstrahlung) and the FGF newsletter pp.4-7 and 13-14 are now deep-read.
  • The over-unity device claims in ch.14-20 (railgun, Testatika, Bedini/Ecklin, Patterson cell, Stan Meyer cell, Searl disc, Podkletnov) are second-hand: Meyl cites Schneider, NET-Journal, Raum & Zeit Special 7 and company statements. His own first-hand experiments (ch.19, 1989-1999) are listed under the claims below with their numbers.
  • Digest-only documents (no deep read): the Barkhausen detector notes (a different author; page 9 is OCR-garbled), the electrosmog article and the complementary-medicine lecture.
  • Meyl - Objektivitaetstheorie 1.pdf has glyph losses inside the PDF itself (epsilon, proportionality sign, ring integral, a minus sign are printed as "?" or boxes); the deep reader restored them from context.
  • Digest-only documents (no deep read): the Barkhausen detector notes (a different author; page 9 is OCR-garbled), the electrosmog article, the complementary-medicine lecture, the Wiesbaden scalar-wave-medicine lecture and the FGF newsletter.
  • Records that the documents point to but that are not in the folder: T. Treskatis, bachelor thesis, University of Konstanz, 2010 (the only measured data behind the capacitor-loss claim); Meyl, "Self-consistent electrodynamics", PIERS Moscow 2012 (the loss term); Meyl, EMC Journal 1 (1995) 56-59; Tesla's US patent 787,412 (1905) and US 645,576 / 649,621 (the 471,240 km/s and 12 Hz statements are Meyl's readings of it); Tesla's Electrical Experimenter article of Feb. 1919 (the Kelvin dialogue); the TU Clausthal "control survey" of 6 July 2000; the unnamed EMC laboratory; the IGF follow-up report (Weidner and Zentgraf, gravitation.org/Meyl2.html); Nimtz, Chiao and Krausz tunnelling papers; Yializis et al. 1980 and Taylor 1984 (capacitor corrosion); Hafele-Keating 1972; the Tamarack mine plumb-line report. Later steps must say plainly when a conclusion rests on [memory] alone.

The 7 central claims

  1. Maxwell's equations are an approximation. Starting from Faraday's motional law E = v x B and the convection law H = -v x D, Meyl reads off Maxwell's induction and Ampere laws only in the special case b = -v div B = 0, and keeps the dropped term, written b = B/tau2, as a "potential vortex" of the electric field (the anti-vortex to the eddy current); this is equivalent to allowing div B not equal to zero and gives the "fundamental field equation" c^2 Delta E = d^2E/dt^2 + (1/tau1 + 1/tau2) dE/dt + E/(tau1 tau2). No value of tau2 is given anywhere.

  2. Potential vortices explain noise, capacitor and dielectric losses, and the near field. Antenna and resistor noise is the frequency conversion done by vortices; the dielectric losses of a capacitor (and microwave-oven or induction heating) are vortex decay, so a complex permittivity (which Meyl says implies a complex speed of light) is "physically wrong"; the measured evidence is one qualitative tan-delta plot for an MKT capacitor (Treskatis 2010 thesis), Meyl's own 11.06.1990 Q measurements at the FH Furtwangen HF laboratory (about 400 MHz: silver-coated ceramic package Q = 48, silver polished off Q = 28, silver acid-stripped Q = 9, which on repetition 'drowned in the mean variation' so that the colleague who proposed a joint publication withdrew; book pp.410-412), and photographs borrowed from Yializis 1980.

  3. The vortices travel as longitudinal "scalar waves" (Tesla radiation) of variable speed, with a stability limit at 1.618 c. The grad div part of the wave equation, which Meyl says Maxwell's theory sets to zero, is a longitudinal wave whose speed is arbitrary (general wave equation v^2 grad div B - c^2 rot rot B = d^2B/dt^2); a vortex with tau2 = r/c gives v^2 - vc - c^2 = 0, hence v = 1.618 c (the golden proportion), the near field "reaches to infinity" there, and the antenna rule is lambda_vortex = 1.618 lambda. Such waves can be modulated in frequency and wavelength separately and tunnel through Faraday cages.

  4. A kit of two flat Tesla coils with spheres shows scalar-wave effects: wireless energy transfer, receiver feedback, over-unity (500-1000% in the JSE paper and the book; the figure differs between Meyl's own texts: "1 to 3 times" in the kit advertisement on book p.649, "about 10" in the JSE paper and on Neutrino Power p.302, "between 1 and 10" in the Fortschrittliche lecture, "up to 500%, in single cases more than fivefold" in the Wiesbaden lecture, 4.9 on book p.411 where the gross ratio is 21%), speed 1.5 c and an ineffective Faraday cage. Stated in the kit manual (2000), the JSE paper (2001), lecture papers and the 2003 book; every number rests on LED brightness, a frequency ratio (7 MHz to about 4.7 MHz) at an assumed constant wavelength, a December 1999 oscilloscope record (6.7 MHz, 233 mW in with receiver, 223 mW idle, 49.1 mW out, read as 490%), or unnamed confirmations ("some universities", TU Clausthal 1000%, "over 50 universities" with Edinburgh, Vienna, Stanford and TU Beijing named and no result given). Meyl's own manual (Experiment 2) says that if the cable connection is unplugged the transmitter LEDs shine again and the receiver LEDs go out; the Fortschrittliche lecture says that with the earth lead disconnected "the oscillation stops". Meyl sells the kit (800 EUR demonstration set, 1400 EUR experimentation kit).

  5. Tesla radiation is neutrino radiation, and neutrinos are oscillating vortices that can be collected as free energy ("Neutrinopower"), and are absorbed by stars and planets so that the Earth and Sun grow. A neutrino is a ring vortex alternating between electron and positron, with zero mean charge and mass and nonzero RMS values, faster than light and interacting only in resonance (same frequency, opposite phase). The Earth's circumference grows 18-19 cm per year by neutrino absorption (8e16 kg per year), or 6.5 cm per year in diameter by compound growth of the core (2003 book); other devices (railgun, Moebius and flat coils, Patterson cell, Stan Meyer cell, Searl disc, Testatika) are said to collect the same radiation; the 11 August 1999 eclipse is said to have focused solar neutrinos 27-68 times on the Earth's core. The eclipse mechanism is refraction: slow neutrinos are bent by the Moon "like a glass ball" and by the Earth's core, with the focus on the umbra axis (Ulm-Augsburg-Freising in 1999) and a second point where the focused beam grazes the core. Meyl links the eclipses of 26.2.1998 and 11.8.1999 to the Montserrat eruption, a Salt Lake City tornado, Foucault-pendulum deviations, "a proven temporary acceleration of the rotation of the earth" and the Turkey and Taiwan earthquakes of 17.8-20.9.1999 ("in a rhythm of 6 to 7 days"), and the 2003 book writes dated forecasts: 29.3.2006 (rotation slowing; earthquakes about 4.4.2006 for Crete and Asia Minor), 13.11.2012 ("no good"), 21.8.2017 (South Carolina in the role Turkey played). No energy balance with measured neutrino fluxes is attempted in the papers. Meyl's own results on devices are mixed: he reports that his laboratory could not reproduce the over-unity of an inventor's 3 kW magnetic converter (Neutrino Power p.240), that his rebuilds of Seike's Moebius windings did not work (p.238), that small railgun replicas show no avalanche effect (p.227), and that in three cases he had to tell inventors they had measured wrong (book p.346). Third-party eclipse anomalies he cites come from Shu-wen Zhou (21st Century Science & Technology 12(3), 1999: spectra, caesium clocks, Allais-type pendulum).

  6. The "theory of objectivity": fields determine all lengths and the speed of light, and it derives gravitation, particle masses and the Schroedinger equation. Meyl states E, H proportional to 1/l^2, c proportional to l (c is a "measurement constant"), gravitation as the effect of closed field lines and electromagnetism of open ones; vortex shell models give the muon as 204 m_e, the proton as nine times the muon, and tables of mesons and hyperons from the single anchor m_p = 1836 m_e; the Schroedinger and Klein-Gordon equations follow from the fundamental field equation when tau1 = tau2. Neutrino Power (pp.146-222) adds, in interview form: the proton is an electron enclosing two positrons, with its magnetic axis said to point opposite its spin; the neutron is a proton plus an electron; there is no strong interaction; anti-suns are as common as suns; electrons are much larger than nucleons; planets orbit without a force; and Meyl says the length law cannot be observed or measured from inside any laboratory (pp.193-196).

  7. Scalar waves are the biological information carrier, and technical electrosmog (mobile phones, masts) harms through their scalar share; vibration medicine can use them. Nerve conduction is a longitudinal standing wave (nodes of Ranvier); mobile-phone frequencies converted with sound speed give tinnitus; broadcast radiation violates Article 2 of the German Basic Law; bioresonance, frequency therapy (Clark) and the zapper work through the tunnelling scalar share; cancer is an energy-deficiency disease of neutrino capture. The Wiesbaden lecture offers no trial, patient data or measurement for any of these mechanisms; the numbers are derived (nerve: node spacing 1 mm, 120 m/s, so 60 kHz; tinnitus: a 32 cm wavelength mapped to 1 kHz by sound speed). Two experimental items do appear in the documents. (a) Meyl's informal on/off test of 14.06.1997 at an electrobiology seminar: an "extremely electrosensitive" woman said every 5 s whether the receiver grounding was clamped and "after a training round her proportion of hits was lying at 100 percent"; a pendulum subject also answered correctly; Meyl "repeated this experiment several times with different success" (trial counts not given; single source; book p.418). (b) The blood "rouleaux" (money-roll) demonstration that Meyl cites is the subject of a Bonn physiology laboratory test (Gollnick and Conrad, FGF newsletter April 2000, pp.5-7), which found rouleaux independent of a mobile-phone call and judged the demonstration unsuitable; the publisher FGF is an industry- and ministry-linked body (interested party), and the study reports no sample sizes. Meyl's kit manual offers an SWG-A "scalar wave device" at 3950 EUR for imprinting biological information (commercial stake).

Independent evidence on record (stated so that it is not lost)

  • IGF test report, Waldaschaff, Sept. 2001 (six named authors, instruments listed): the effects described in the manual were reproduced, then explained by standing waves on a coiled Lecher line / shortened dipole at 5.35 MHz and 29.5 MHz, current of 3.4 mA rms (28% of the oscillator current) in the one-wire link, LED-generated harmonics, and an efficiency of about 45% (eye-matched LED brightness); no over-unity observed; the authors also state that the kit is too small and low-power to count as a replication of Tesla's apparatus and that Tesla's experiments "have not yet been exactly replicated". Meyl's reply (CoMed 01/03) calls the IGF a "questionable private institute" that made only conventional measurements. Gaps listed by the deep reader: no cage measurement, no wire-removed control, wavelength inconsistency (56.07 m versus 44.4 m).
  • Meyl's own concessions on record: in a cage or tunnel the received signal cannot reveal which share was scalar from the start (Neutrino Power pp.108-109); the zapper hits beneficial bacteria; frequency therapy "should not work" by present physics; a scalar telephone needs more than 40 years; the manual says a gap in the door or a cable gives "perfect coupling" and that the ground cable is a conductor needing a return path; in 1990 repeats of the capacitor-loss measurement "drowned in the mean variation".
  • Meyl's other first-hand results (book ch.19-20 and Neutrino Power): the 1990 capacitor-Q runs above; a microwave-oven cooling comparison (22.10.1996, one run per method, text and caption disagree on direction); a charge-amplifier "wild dance" without numbers; a Kirlian "phantom leaf" (about 1990); a radioactivity measurement near Munich on 11.8.1999 that showed "almost no change"; and the 1999 transmission-line record, whose readouts give a gross efficiency of 21% and a power factor of 0.055 at the transmitter (deep read ch.19 section 1.8).
  • Public-record checks by the deep reader (ch.20, [web]): USGS ComCat confirms the 1999 earthquakes Meyl lists but shows a normal global count of M6 and larger in the two months after 11.8.1999; for 29.3-15.4.2006 nothing at Crete or in Anatolia but an M5.5 on 4.4.2006 and an M5.5-5.7 swarm to 12.4.2006 off Zakynthos, about 400 km from Crete; nothing notable after 13.11.2012 or 21.8.2017 at the named places. IERS length of day shows the Earth slowing after 11.8.1999 and speeding up after 29.3.2006, the opposite of both claims (and the core, which Meyl speaks of, is not what LOD measures). Meyl invites such checks: "anyone with my indications and an eclipse of the sun-CD can analyse at home all further events" (p.448).
  • Meyl's account of rejection: he says his paper "Potentialwirbel in der Elektrodynamik", submitted in April 1990, was rejected (the journal, Annalen der Physik, is named by the interviewer, and Meyl does not correct it). As he reports the grounds, "it was argued" (no one named) that Maxwell's theory covers all phenomena, and "a referee writes" that cases it does not cover only need better approximation methods (Neutrino Power pp.213-214, deep-read; Meyl's own account, no rejection date, referee report or second source).
  • Parties with a stake: Meyl (author, kit and book seller, INDEL GmbH; manual prices on p.34 including the 3950 EUR SWG-A device; staff paid from a private donation fund, Neutrino Power p.295; telecom firms bought his books but declined funding; president of a "Society for the Advantage of Physics"; adviser to the egm "Wirbelwandler"), the publisher/interviewer of Neutrino Power (Magazin 2000 plus; von Buttlar), the raum&zeit publisher group (Mueller/IREF article), and the FGF newsletter publisher (an association founded through the federal post ministry in 1992, with network operators and manufacturers among its members; it states its own independence). Tesla is the only source for the Kelvin 1897 story (Electrical Experimenter, 1919) that Meyl uses as historical support; the story is Tesla's own account as retold by Meyl.
  • Two documents are not about Meyl's work: the Barkhausen "scalar detector" notes (Robert Shannon, 1996; Bearden-style detectors) and the raum&zeit report on a "G-Com" demonstration by Hartmut Mueller (2001). The FGF newsletter (April 2000) carries the Bonn test of the blood "rouleaux" demonstration that Meyl cites.

Corrections to earlier documents

  • digest/About-Vortex-Physics-and-Vortex-Losses-23c4e1.01.md, line "p.7-8: Section 10": it says Meyl keeps div B = 0 (eq. 6). This is wrong: the page image shows eq. (6) as div B NOT equal to 0, the Step 0 text layer dropped the glyph. Meyl abandons div B = 0 (confirmed in the 2013 PIERS paper). Any summary that repeats "div B = 0 is kept" must be corrected.
  • The Experimente-zum-Nachweis document is a report by the Institut fuer Gravitationsforschung (IGF), Waldaschaff, six named authors; it does not describe them as students. Any earlier file that calls them a "student group" should say "six authors at the private IGF, Waldaschaff".
  • The deep-read file for Consequences of the Extended Field Theory.pdf is stored under the name Meyl-Consequences-of-the-Extended-Field-Theory-placeholder.md; the text is _text/Consequences-of-the-Extended-Field-Theory-da5fd8.txt (same 6-page document).
  • The deep read of the 2003 textbook (file deep/Meyl-Scalar-Waves-first-...-603e47.md) records that its earlier sections for PDF pp.183-241 and pp.301-363 were overwritten by a concurrent write; they should be re-run (see the coverage note).
  • Statements in the deep reads that carry the books' own errors (check if any later file repeats them): "growth less than 0.1 mm per year" (the book's own mean is 29 mm/yr and today 65 mm/yr), "day of 18.84 h 200 Myr ago" (the book's own premise gives 6.9 h), "Hafele-Keating 214 ns" (the sign-correct difference of the published 273 and -59 ns is 332 ns [memory, high]), "Moon factor 36" (eq. 11 gives 2.45; the 36 is in Neutrino Power p.191 and both Objektivitaetstheorie papers, 2.457 in the 2003 book), "Apollo 11 Hadley" (Apollo 15 [memory, high]).

Corrections added at QE remediation (2026-10-08)

  • Claim 7 earlier said "These statements come without trial or measurement data in the documents." That was incomplete: the 1997 on/off test (book p.418) and the Bonn rouleaux test (FGF newsletter pp.5-7) are in the documents. Corrected above.
  • Claim 2 earlier named the tan-delta plot as the main measured evidence and mentioned the 1990 Q measurement only in passing; the numbers (48, 28, 9) and their failed repeats are now stated. The Q table is on PDF p.411 (book p.400) and the narrative on PDF pp.410 and 412, not "book p.412".
  • Claim 4 earlier gave one over-unity range; Meyl's own texts give 1-3x, about 10x, 1-10x, up to 5x and 4.9x (gross ratio 21%).
  • The coverage note earlier said the ch.14-20 deep reads were lost; they were redone (PDF pp.183-241, 295-400, 401-455) and the textbook entry in facts.json is updated.
  • digest/Meyl-Scalar-Waves-Theory-And-Experiments-2001-f744b9.01.md, line "p.7: ... Pulling the receiver earthing: receiver LED still lights". The source says pulling out the receiver earthing makes the LED signal the effect back on the transmitter, so the transmitter LED lights (QE spot check of _text JSE p.7). facts.json does not repeat the digest error.
  • Tesla's patent US 787,412 figures: the textbook (p.214) reads 0.08484 s as "approx. 6 Hz" and 1.6 c with a polar radius of 6363 km (circumference 39,980 km / 0.08484 s = 1.57 c; 6 Hz is 1/(2 x 0.08484 s)); other Meyl texts use 12 Hz against the 7.8 Hz Schumann resonance. The two readings differ by a factor of two in frequency. Meyl attributes the numbers to the patent, not to a measurement of his own.
  • Colorado Springs in the textbook is "200 lamps of 50 W at 25 miles" (about 40 km, p.202); Neutrino Power says 42 km (p.22). The lamps are called fluorescent in both.
  • Deep-read tags to keep straight: Neutrino Power p.226 prints "B = v x B" where E = v x B is meant; the book says "Walter" Schauberger on p.263 and "Viktor" in the Bild 36 caption (p.266); the ch.19 "Book p.412" Q-test reference above.
  • Items the deep reads found that the arbiter and primer should absorb: the 4.4.2006 Zakynthos swarm (pertinent to the Crete forecast, for and against), the phase-skew point on the 490% record, Meyl's concessions on Testatika ("There thus can't be talked of free energy"), and his statement that the Wiesbaden "universities" list gives no results.
