The electromagnetic waves are considered in this article as the mediators of interaction in the Meissner Effect or the diamagnetic property of the superconductors. During the cooling of a superconductor electromagnetic waves may be released when the electrons occupy lower states of the energy. These electromagnetic waves may combine in circularly, elliptically and spherically rotating way, being called in this article the rounded electromagnetic fields. The application of the Lorentz transformation of the Special Theory of Relativity to the magnetic vectors of the mediating electromagnetic fields implies the magnetic orthogoniopedic effect inside the bulk of a superconductor in the Meissner Effect.
The existing models which have tried to explain the phenomenon of superconductivity, amongst which belongs the B.C.S. theory [1,2], consider mainly the phonons or the quanta of the elastic vibrations for the interaction of the superconducting particles known as the Cooper pairs. The present article considers a contribution of the electromagnetic waves [3,4] as the interaction mediators in the Meissner Effect [2,3]. For the scientists who are specialized in the theory of electromagnetic waves this may seem evident, since electric and magnetic interactions between charged particles are, according to the standard models of interactions, mediated by electromagnetic fields. However, this electromagnetic wave mediation may not have already been much considered by the scientists of superconductivity in the solid state physics. When the superconductor is cooled below its critical temperature, the orbital electrons may release electromagnetic fields, when the orbital electrons are going to occupy lower states of energy [

Analogous to Equation (1) one can write an equation for the electric field in which the roles of the directions x and y are interchanged. Equation (1) is the three dimensional analogous to the two dimensional case where one sees a circle on the screen of the oscilloscope when on the x-axis the signal of “” and on the y-axis the signal of “” are brought.

The result of Equation (1) shows a field, which if it is time-averaged, it obeys an equation analogous to an equation of a sphere. Let us call this combination of the electromagnetic fields in Equation (1) and its analogous counterpart for the electric field the rounded electromagnetic fields. The Equation (1) uses the expressions for harmonic functions of plane waves [
If and are commensurable, that is if [] is a rational fraction, still a space contained as a box with the side-lengths as long as the amplitude of the magnetic field 2B is effective and extended will be filled with a Lissajous surface (which is an extension of the notion of Lissajous curve [
Also while a magnet levitates above a superconductor when the magnet is tapped the magnet starts to rotate. This rotary motion of the levitating magnet can be explained by the electromagnetic waves and by the Fourier [
The coefficients and are proportionally related to the radii of the rotary circles. Further the following relations [
If one had two electromagnetic waves the magnetic parts of which are as follows:
then involves a summation of magnetic vectors performing elliptical rotations.
The application of an external magnetic field, let us assume, in the z-direction of a Cartesian coordinate system (x, y, z), in the 3 dimensional Euclidean space, to the superconducting material bulk works as a magnetomotive force on the rounded electromagnetic fields. In the Equation (1) one does not observe in the direction a vector component of the magnetic field belonging to the released and mediating electromagnetic field.However, letting the direction of to be arbitrarily chosen by the combined electromagnetic waves described by Equation (1), but related to the z-direction of an applied external magnetic field, then by a linear transformation, such as Equation (18) (see the bottom of the page.)

where the angles are the Euler angles [
For the Meissner effect the existing theory is the proportionality of the electric current density j to the vector potential A of the externally applied magnetic field which leads to the London equation [1,2], however, the direction of the magnetization for a superconductor is not yet specified.
Inside a superconductor on a scale of the elementary particles there are some parts of space not occupied by material particles which can be considered as vacuum, though a bulk of a superconductor is by itself not considered as vacuum. In a bulk of a superconducting material, the rounded electromagnetic fields may have interactions with the spin magnetic dipole moments of charged particles, amongst them the electrons, and the rounded electromagnetic fields may not move with the same speed as in vacuum. Let us consider the following situation:
At time t = 0, an external magnetic field is applied above the superconducting bulk. The direction of this applied external magnetic field is taken here as the direction of the z-axis of the Cartesian coordinate system. The rounded electromagnetic fields are under the exertion of this magnetomotive force. The vectors of the rounded electromagnetic fields comply with the Lorentz transformation of the Special Theory of Relativity [9,10], while they are under the exertion of the magnetomotive force of the external magnetic field, and while the rounded electromagnetic fields are moving with the speed v close to the speed c of light in vacuum, because the restriction of inertia is not applicable to the rounded electromagnetic fields here, since they are massless. Decomposing the vector radii of the rounded electromagnetic fields into three components in the Cartesian coordinate system and taking a general function f(r) for the amplitude of the magnetic vector, instead of restricting ourselves to the Coulomb law of the inverse of the square of the vector radius or the distance, one can write the expressions of the components of the magnetic vector of the rounded electromagnetic fields in their own rest frame or in the moving reference frame (with respect to an observer who is at rest and observes the motion of the rounded electromagnetic fields) in the z-direction with a speed v, using polar and Cartesian coordinates as follows

(21)
In the Expressions (19)-(21) the “” is the difference between the final and the initial Cartesian coordinates
(the Cartesian coordinates of two points which are denoted by the subscripts f and i which stand for the words final and initial, respectively, are used to indicate a direction of a vector in the three dimensional spatial part of the Minkowski space [
Using the following Lorentz transformation to the observer’s reference frame at rest by considering the direction of motion of the moving reference frame in the z-direction of the Cartesian coordinate system [9,10]
or
The angle that the magnetic vector is having with the z-axis (or with the z-axis in the moving reference frame) can be found from its tangent function (using Equations (19), (20) and (21)) as follows
One can see here that the function cancels out. Therefore, the result (24) holds in general for magnetic fields which might not even satisfy the Coulomb law. Using the Lorentz transformation (23), one can write the tangent of the angle between the magnetic vector and the z-axis, found to the observer’s reference frame at rest, as follows
(25)
In Equation (24) all primed coordinates are measured at the same instant of the primed time, therefore
From Equation (26) we find the following
Substituting the result of Equation (27) into Equation (25) one gets
Thus we have
In the limit when the speed of motion of the rounded electromagnetic fields reaches a value close to the value of the speed of light in vacuum, one obtains the following
and the limit of Equation (29) is obtained as
Equation (31), as a result of the property of the Minkowski relativistic space shows that the magnetic field vectors of the rounded electromagnetic fields approach an angle of 90 degrees with respect to the direction of motion when the rounded electromagnetic fields move with a speed approaching the speed of light in vacuum (
The concentration of the magnetic field vectors of the rounded electromagnetic fields inside the superconducting bulk perpendicular to their direction of motion and also perpendicular to the direction of the applied external magnetic field results in the alignment of the spin magnetic moments of the orbital electrons of the atoms or molecules or ions of the superconductor (therefore, not the resultant spins of the Cooper pairs [
When the external applied magnetic field is expelled,
the rounded electromagnetic fields are not undergoing the exertion of the magnetomotive force. At that instant, the magnetic field vectors of the rounded electromagnetic fields have a state of comparatively diminished constraint due to the expulsion of the external applied magnetic field and the rounded electromagnetic fields try to restore the state when the constraint by the external applied magnetic field was absent. They do it by exerting forces, causing a motion opposite to the original direction of the applied external magnetic field again with a speed close to the speed of light in vacuum. For this opposite motion again Equation (31) holds and the external applied magnetic field is still expelled. When the original state is reached, at that short instant the rounded electromagnetic fields are not moving and the effect of Equation (31) is not present for a very short instant of time, until the external applied magnetic field assumes its role again as the magnetomotive force, and the steps mentioned above repeat themselves, causing an oscillatory (motion in the z direction) of the magnetic field the vectors of which are perpendicular to the direction of the applied external magnetic field. For the time dependence of the velocity of motion of the rounded electromagnetic fields, one may write in this way the following function
where “Intgr” indicates that only the integer part of the argument should be taken, H(t) is the Heaviside step function [
is too short or equivalently the frequency of the oscillation is too high then the oscillatory effect of the motion of the magnetic field the vectors of which are perpendicular to the externally applied magnetic field may not easily be detectable. However, by another experimental set-up, presumably one might be able to observe that there is indeed a perpendicular magnetic field with respect to the direction of the external applied magnetic field by moving a planar conducting loop (
where I is the current which might be measurable by an ammeter or an electric current meter, R the resistance of the conducting loop and Φ the magnetic flux enclosed by the conducting loop. The external magnetic field would have, in this configuration of the conducting loop (as in
The article brought the electromagnetic waves as the plausible interaction mediators in the Meissner Effect or the diamagnetic property of the superconductors, based on the existing standard model of the interaction between charged particles [
