During 1950, Research School of Physical Sciences at the new Australian National University, initiated the design and construction of the world's largest ( 500 megajoule ) homopolar generator.

From Weininger, Heimsoth took the " law of the polar union " as an impulse of the sexual union and completed it with a second " law of the homopolar union ".
23.
Later homopolar generators would solve this problem by using an array of magnets arranged around the disc perimeter to maintain a steady field around the circumference, and eliminate areas where counterflow could occur.
24.
Then it uses a linear motor ( an alternating-current motor such as in a coil gun, or a homopolar motor as in a railgun ) to accelerate the payload to high speeds.
25.
The name " homopolar " indicates that the electrical polarity of the conductor and the magnetic field poles do not change ( i . e ., that it does not require commutation ).
26.
The project was never completed as Guccioni was unable to secure the $ 150 million needed to build the full-sized device ( much of which would have been for a large homopolar generator ).
27.
He is credited with the eponymous " Barlow's wheel " ( an early homopolar electric motor ) and with " Barlow's law " ( an incorrect formula of electrical conductance ).
28.
But recently I've seen attempts of Wikipedia : WikiProject Paranormal to tag articles which have a paranormal connection only in widest of all imaginable senses : Like the archaelogy article Megalith or the physics article Homopolar generator.

Later, Tolpygo generalized his theory to describe homopolar crystals ( Si, Ge, diamond, etc . ), cryocrystals of noble gases, and molecular crystals by introducing long-range Coulomb interactions in their lattice dynamics.

"' Barlow's wheel "'was an early demonstration of a homopolar motor, designed and built by mercury contact on the rim; this is contained in a small trough through which the rim passes.
