> "Here, we show that this 60-year-old long-sought effect has been concealed for all this time in the physics of induction generators. Induction motors are constituted of two components: an external stator, composed of circuits generating a rotating magnetic field, and a rotor, also composed of several elementary circuit loops, usually in a squirrel cage configuration. By replacing the internal circuits of the rotor with a solid metal cylinder as in Zel’dovich’s original proposal, and using a gapped toroid within a LC resonator as stator, we isolate the key physical effect and unambiguously observe Zel’dovich amplification, which manifests itself as a negative dissipation induced by the rotor in the LC circuit."
