Ye Olde Electric Asteroids

There is a plethora of asteroids and comets in our solar system: Apollo's, Amors, Hilda's, Hungarians, Main Belt asteroids, Trojans, Cybeles. There are asteroid 'families' and there are interloping comets. The asteroids appear have been sorted. This article / E-book proposes that the shapes and orbital parameters of asteroids and comets are affected by electric currents and magnetic fields and that these provide the sorting mechanism.
