Coulomb's Law Electric Field Simulation -- Tech Demo

This is a quick video showing a strange attractor being introduced into an electromagnetic simulation. Each point on the attractor is treated as an electron with an associated electric field. There are also random "nuclei" introduced with an oppositely charged field of greater magnitude. The electrons experience a force based on the cumulative field according to the vector version of Coulomb's Law, and this is resolved to relative motion using Runge-Kutta methods.

I also implemented a loose interpretation of the Pauli Exclusion Principle that prevents the electrons from approaching a nuclei's core too closely. This results in self-organizing spheres of electrons, which give an interesting insight into charge densities in a variant electric field. You can see when multiple protons are interacting the electrons pack themselves tightly together on the sides of the spheres facing other protons.

It is also obvious that with a little work, the surface of the spheres could be tesselated using the electrons as points to create a solid wireframe surface.

It will be very interesting to see multiple mobile protons in the field with charges modulated according to realtime audio FFT data.

The music you hear during this video are chiptune tracks from X-Agon, Factor6 and Gasman

Note that this is very preliminary. Check my other videos for newer results.

This has nothing to do with the Law. so wrong..... Try again...

Sucks, Dude !!
