The brain of a person with Parkinson's disease works like an orchestra where the conductor either freezes or waves the baton off-beat. Medications don't help everyone, so doctors turn to stimulation — weak electrical pulses that restore the rhythm.

Two caravans travel toward each other along a narrow road. One is wide and slow, carrying a load of density. The other, a string of light carts carrying current, slips between the first. Thus, in a magnetron discharge, two structures rotating in opposite directions coexist: the density spoke and the current filaments.
