Scalar Wave Interferometer

Overview

Bearden's scalar interferometer is one of the central constructs of his scalar EM framework: two transmitting antennas are driven at the same frequency but with a 180° phase offset, so their magnetic field vectors cancel in the region between them. In the interference zone, according to Bearden's interpretation, the vector fields annihilate but the scalar (longitudinal) potentials add — creating a focused region of pure potential stress. This rig uses two helical antennas on a precision gimbal mount with a phase-controlled dual-channel RF source, phase-lock circuitry, and a scalar detector (Caduceus coil pickup) in the target zone. The plan includes Bearden's original frequency prescriptions and target zone mapping using a modified AM radio as the anomalous detector.
