toroids

The toroids were the wasp-waist constriction in an hourglass of white-hot wire, and an indigo ghost flame ran down the axis.

Stuart Pivar, for instance, the New York septic tank magnate who thinks animal development is all about toroids getting twisted about.

Fast spinning superconducting toroids doughnut shapes produce gravitational fields so things fall through the hole faster.

It's possible that small superconducting toroids going very fast might produce enough to be useful in an engineering sense: put energy in, get a gravitational field out plus waste heat etc.

Spins of toroids going only 6000 RPM, the same speed as a fast-reving car motor, produce forces 1/10 of a milligee.

M-bius strips of snow turned inward upon themselves and vanished, while shafts of snow winkled their white way through the centers of snowflake toroids.
