Kakalios explained that the intrinsic field has basis in reality in that it is a representation of a collection of the strong and weak nuclear forces.

Veidt hinders Doctor Manhattan with a tachyon generator that interferes with Doctor Manhattan's ability to see the future, and then disintegrates him by subtracting his intrinsic field.
3.
Kakalios explained that if a being were able to manipulate matter, such a being would have complete control over these three forces; hence, the'intrinsic field'would exist.

In early 1959, he moves to a research base at Gila Flats, where experiments are being performed concerning the'intrinsic fields'of physical objects which, if tampered with, result in their disintegration.

One month later, in August, 1959, shortly after his thirtieth birthday, Jon plans to give Janey the repaired watch, only to discover he has left it in his lab coat which is inside the intrinsic field experiment test chamber.

He was originally "'Dr . Jonathan Osterman "', a nuclear physicist who in 1959 was transformed into one of the Most Supreme Beings of DC Comics, after initially being disintegrated in an Intrinsic Field Subtractor and later reconstructing himself.

Scientist Jon Osterman gained power over matter when he was caught in an " Intrinsic Field Subtractor " in 1959 . Doctor Manhattan was based upon Charlton's Captain Atom, who in Moore's original proposal was surrounded by the shadow of nuclear threat.

Unable to open the door or override the countdown, Osterman's colleagues save for Janey, who cannot bear to see the last moment and flees the room can only watch, horrified, as the countdown for the current experiment shortly reaches zero, and Jon has his'intrinsic field'removed.

He was originally a physicist who was transformed into a blue, irradiated powerful being after he was disintegrated in an Intrinsic Field Subtractor in 1959 . He had returned to the chamber to retrieve his girlfriend's watch ( which he had repaired ), and was accidentally locked inside when the Subtractor started automatically.
