RESEARCHERS DESIGN A TRACTOR BEAM POWERED BY LASERS

March 03, 2011-There's no escaping it: Though the tractor beam is a staple of sci-fi space-faring scenarios, it's also extremely counter-intuitive. How does one pull something in via an outward-shooting beam? Surprisingly, a few Chinese researchers think they've found the answer.

A few Chinese researchers think they've found the answer via a theoretical method that should generate a backward-pulling force from a forward-traveling stream of photons.

Tthe Fudan University team won't be capturing rebel tranports with their beam any time soon -- it only works (theoretically) at the nano-level -- but it does achieve an interesting turnabout of physical force. We know photons exert an outward momentum; this is what allows solar sails to harness sunlight to generate small amounts of thrust. But carefully tuned to meet two conditions, a system can be created to turn "push" into "pull."

The conditions: For one, the momentum of the outward propagation must be very small. Second, several multipoles within the target particle must be excited at the same time, scattering the beam.

If the angle of this beam scattering is just right, the total forward momentum can be negative -- that is, it can have negative thrust which equates to reverse thrust, or pull -- meaning the target is pulled back down the stream of photons toward the source.

Voila: tractor beam.

It won't reel in a crippled satellite or an enemy battle cruiser, but it could be used at the nanoscale to manipulate particles in interesting ways that could be especially useful in optical systems.

Its My bet that If We're seeing the Theory behind a Tractor Beam - Then We can bet that there is a real Tractor Beam and this is the parting out of that Technical knowledge from Higher Sources in the Form of the Theory.

With that Theoretical Knowledge - We'll then Build It Ourselves from the Ground up in essence Uplifting Ourselves in the process.

That said - This is one of the ways the Negatives get by in terms of Weaponizing Conquered Races or those They are in the process of Conquering...

They are prohibited by Cosmic Agreements from giving Us the actual Item in question already made and functional but the work around is that They can lead Us into that Knowledge through the Theory of It where We then build it with Their help. That IS allowed...
