Drift currents, not the right language. Try Electric displacement field centered on the Sun.
I'd rather not, for the reasons Ziggurat has pointed out! Here we go again, in the most dumbed down way I can manage;
Scott wants electrons to drift in from beyond the heliosphere to power the Sun. That is impossible. No charged particles can enter the heliosphere unless they have ~ relativistic energies. We call them 'cosmic rays'. We know the flux of them. And there aren't enough of them to power much of anything. Any charged particle has to get past the piled-up magnetic field at the heliopause. Having got past that, it is confronted with the magnetic field carried by the solar wind, at ~ 400 km/s, all the way to that heliopause.
Then we can add his complete ignorance of what the solar wind actually is. He thinks it is a current of ions heading outward, with his drift electrons impossibly heading inwards. As Alfven explained, the solar wind must be overall neutral, otherwise we get an enormous space charge. Which would be bloody obvious. It seems like Alfven, and ~ 60 years of in-situ detections of the quasi-neutral solar wind, are not enough to convince Scott that he hasn't got a clue about plasma physics. Then again, why would he? He was an engineer! Pity he can't recognise that, and shut up about things he doesn't understand. Which also includes nuclear physics.
He wants the neutrinos we detect to come from fusion on the surface/ in the solar atmosphere! It is neither hot enough nor dense enough for fusion there. If, by some miracle, it did occur, it would be blindingly obvious as gamma ray line emission. Which is obviously not seen. Were there sufficient impossible fusion on the surface to account for the neutrino detections, we wouldn't be here. We would never have evolved. Nor would anything else on this planet.
The very fact of our existence is enough to show that Scott is completely clueless!
