Leads for review

1. The inventor's own work

• 2026 reformulation (new): "Entropic Parasites" (25 Mar 2026, Draft v0.1) summarizes a new framework from a forthcoming "Demiurgic Physics: Condensate Electrodynamics": vacuum as a condensate psi = R e^{i theta}, A_mu = -(hbar/q) d_mu theta (the 2014 chi = (h/q) theta), and gravity from the AMPLITUDE R via g_mu_nu proportional to R^2 eta_mu_nu, not from div A. Bears on claims 1, 2, 5. Reviewers should note the 2014 postulate phi_g = beta div A may have been superseded by the inventor himself. [web] https://scalarphysics.com/Montalk_(2026)_Entropic_Parasites.pdf
• Earliest dates of the core ideas: longitudinal plate wave and the spherical-capacitor displacement-current argument, 11 Jul 2004; ambient ether pressure sets c, inertia as Mach's principle, 7 Aug 2006; phi = beta div A with "beta ... yet to be measured through experiment" and portal condition -c^2/2, 26 Mar 2007. Bears on claims 2, 3, 5. [web] montalk.net pages above.
• Concrete proposed generators of divergent A (2007): rotating magnetic fields, spherical electrodes with asymmetric pulsed HV, radially arranged railguns fired together, charged plasma implosions, radial currents, converging EM waves, phase-conjugate cavities. Bears on claim 4: the closest the inventor comes to an experimental programme.
• Biefeld-Brown claim (2006): electrons slightly antigravitational, protons gravitational, so a capacitor feels a net force toward its positive pole "as demonstrated in the Biefeld-Brown effect". A specific, checkable statement not in the project documents. Bears on claims 2 and 4.
• Release date: paper v0.2 put on scalarphysics.com 22 May 2014 (archived changelog).
• 2021 video "A Brief Introduction to Scalar Physics" on the inventor's YouTube channel (E-Cat World report); not yet located or watched.

2. Supporting information by others

• Independent build: "Scalar Harmonic Oscillator" (YouTube, Bogirish Ian, about 2025) says it was inspired by Minderle's video and paper and uses counter-wound coils to cancel the B-field curl. No result data seen. Bears on claims 3 and 4.
• Citations: Google Scholar shows 2 citing works (Sorensen 2024 on osmotic momentum; Wangari and Murang'a on "aether engineering"), plus alternative-science sites (svpwiki, Cosmic Core, LENR Forum, ResearchGate "New theory of the aether"). No peer-reviewed citation or rebuttal found.

3. Closely related work

• Minotti and Modanese, Aharonov-Bohm electrodynamics (EPJC 2023; arXiv 2302.10224, 2310.13968, 2024 circuit proposal): a peer-reviewed theory in which pure-potential "gauge waves" with E = B = 0 become physical and detectable when the current is not locally conserved, with detector designs. The precise published counterpart to claim 3; in it the wave is electromagnetic, not gravitational. Listed by the inventor himself.
• Monstein and Wesley, EPL 59 (2002), "Observation of scalar longitudinal electrodynamic waves" (ETH Zurich), with the Bray and Britton Comment (EPL 2004) and the authors' reply (2004). The nearest published experiment on claim 3, with both the claim and the criticism on record; to be read next run.
• Hively (retired Oak Ridge National Laboratory), Gradient Dynamics LLC: WO2016196231A1 (priority 29 May 2015, US 14/726,305 and 14/738,775), a transmitter that cancels the magnetic field to radiate "scalar-longitudinal waves"; extended-electrodynamics papers (Hively and Giakos 2012; IARD 2020 with M. Land). The same design principle as Minderle's sphere/plate antenna (claim 3). The patent applicant has a commercial stake.
• van Vlaenderen and Waser (Hadronic Journal 2001), a scalar field added to Maxwell's equations giving longitudinal waves; and the rest of the inventor's resource list (Zohuri 2018, Jack Dea, Marinov, Bearden, Aharonov-Bohm 1959, Sengupta and Sarkar on Maxwellian history).
• Greenberger and Svozil, "Quantum Theory Looks at Time Travel", the mainstream paper the inventor builds his hyperspace/phase argument on (claim 4).

4. Historical record

• CIA memo, 22 Dec 1987 (STARGATE collection, CIA-RDP96-00792R000500240001-6, released 2001), DT-ACO to Dr. Vorona, "Scalar Waves": describes the E = 0, B = 0 solution with A = grad S, phi = -dS/dt (S obeying a wave equation), which is Minderle's superpotential under another name; raises submarine communication uses and the unresolved energy-source question; names Bearden as the chief proponent; "their existence is not proven". Shows the pure-potential-wave idea was under US government review 17 years before Minderle's first page. Bears on claims 1, 3, 6.
• Absence of evidence to analyse: "Demiurgic Physics" was announced as "to be released, 2026" but was not found published by 2026-10-04 (theantiquearchive.com also noted it is unpublished). Possible explanations: still in drafting; private circulation; abandoned. Recheck scalarphysics.com and montalk.net next run.
