Abstract:
Hayut and the first author isolated the notion of a critical cardinal in [1]. In this work, we answer several questions raised in the original paper. We show that it is consistent for a critical cardinal not to have any ultrapower elementary embeddings, as well as that it is consistent that no target model is closed. We also prove that if is a critical point by any ultrapower embedding, then it is the critical point of an ultrapower embedding by a normal measure. The paper concludes by presenting several open questions of interest in the study of critical cardinals.

The iron core has a substantial relative permeability. Therefore, the magnetic field lines generated due to the current in one winding are almost entirely confined within the core, such that the same magnetic flux permeates each turn of both...
