Co-rotating vortices repel, counter-rotating vortices attract. We don’t talk of spinors for nothing, hydrogen atoms don’t twinkle, magnets don’t shine, and electrons don’t move the way they do because of juju magic. Take a look at the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spinor">Moebius strip spinor</a>, think of it as an inner tube, then mentally inflate it to the <a href="http://members.optushome.com.au/walshjj/toroid2.jpg">Williamson/van der Mark electron</a> with a spin half dipole nature, then animate it like <a href="http://www.antiprism.com/album/misc/ring_tor1_anim.gif">this</a> then inflate further to the <a href="http://www.antiprism.com/album/misc/horn_tor1_anim.gif">horn torus</a>, then all the way to the <a href="http://www.antiprism.com/album/misc/spindle_tor2_anim.gif">spindle sphere torus</a>. This is the eye of the storm in the middle of the 3D chiral frame-dragged dynamical spinor vortex standing-wave standing-field construct that is the electron or positron. There aren’t two types of radiant fields, there’s two types of forces, linear and rotational, resulting from electromagnetic field interactions. It takes two to tango. The electron is not surrounded by a field of force. The force only occurs when you add another electron. Or positron.
