Dipole accelerating means and method

A method for controllably acclerating a particle of matter having a selected dipole characteristic comprising the steps of:

• generating an alternating electric field which varies at a selected frequency and which extends in a first direction and wherein the electric field has a predetermined magnitude which is less than the characteristic field ionization limit of a particle of matter;
• generating an alternating magentic field having a frequency of oscillation which is substantially equal to said selected frequency and which is at a predetermined phase angle relative to said alternating electric field and wherein said magnetic field has a flux density which, when multiplied times said selected frequency, is less than the characteristic field ionization potential limit of a particle of matter;
• positioning said electric field and said magnetic field relative to each other such that the electric field which extends in said first direction crosses and intercepts at a predetermined location the magnetic field which extends in a second direction to define a spatial force field region;
• establishing a particle at a selected temperature below the thermal ionization level thereof;
• transporting a particle at a selected temperature into said spatial force field region defined by said crossed electric field and magnetic field which coact with and cause the dipole of a particle to be driven into cyclic motion at substantially said selected frequency to produce a reactive force which accelerates a particle in a direction which is substantially normal to said first direction of said electric field and said second direction of said magnetic field;
• and
• establishing with a control means operatively coupled to said means for generating and alternating electric field and to said means for generating and alternating magnetic field a predetermined spatial and time relationship between the electric field, magnetic field and dipole cyclic motion for a selected frequency to control the reactive force which accelerates a particle located in said spatial force field region in response to the dielectric properties of a particle at said selected temperature.
