What - in this thread - is meant by a "weak radial electric field"? A quick summary is fine.
I visulize a magnetic/electric field much the same as you see for Earth, Jupiter, Sol...etc and when moons/rocks/dust/comets move thru this field, an electric charge is produced. The higher the angle of attack (steeper to the radial field) the faster the charge rate.
