Sure you can. Astrophysical electric fields are ruled out because of the lack of charge seperation.
Moreover, due to the effects of plasma on the electromagnetic field, you can
basically ignore the electric field in many astrophysical (and industrial) applications.
You're not kidding are you? There is no lack of charge separation and there is no magnetic field without the electrical component.
Electric Sun Verified
However, a more fundamental conceptual error is to invoke stellar and galactic “winds” and the notion of tails being “swept downstream.” Astrospheres and comets are plasma discharge phenomena! Electrodynamic forces govern them. Discussions about the “external magnetic forces of the galactic wind” dominating the shape of the heliosphere highlights a curious blindspot in astrophysics.
In 1970 the late Hannes Alfvén counseled against the notion that magnetic fields can exist in space while ignoring their origin in cosmic electric currents and their circuits. Alfvén predicted an imminent “crisis in cosmology.” I’m sure he never imagined that scientific revolutions could take a century or more in this era of global communication. But specialism and specialist jargon is the enemy of communication and the wide-ranging investigation needed to compose the “big picture” we call cosmology. And no scientist likes to admit their specialty is in crisis.
Alfvén’s axial “double layers” (DLs) have been included although their distance from the Sun is unknown. DLs are produced in current carrying plasma and are the one region where charge separation takes place in plasma and a high voltage is generated across them (see discussion below).
In 1984 Alfvén predicted from his circuit model of the Sun there are two double layers, one connected to each pole at some unknown distance from the Sun or heliosphere. He wrote,
“As neither double layer nor circuit can be derived from magnetofluid models of a plasma, such models are useless for treating energy transfer by means of double layers. They must be replaced by particle models and circuit theory... Application to the heliospheric current systems leads to the prediction of two double layers on the sun's axis which may give radiations detectable from Earth. Double layers in space should be classified as a new type of celestial object.” — H. Alfvén,
Double Layers and Circuits in Astrophysics, IEEE Transactions On Plasma Science, Vol. PS-14, No. 6, December 1986.
The most important plasma circuit element—the 'Double Layer.'
The Astrophysical Crisis at Red Square
Alfvén writes, "Since the time of Langmuir, we know that a double layer is a plasma formation by which a plasma—in the physical meaning of this word—protects itself from the environment. It is analogous to a cell wall by which a plasma—in the biological meaning of this word—protects itself from the environment." This concept of a star "protecting itself" from the environment throws an entirely different light upon the real nature of stars. They are powered from without, electrically, not from within! This is impossible in the language of MHD, the lingua franca of astrophysicists. Neither double layers nor circuits can be derived from MHD models. Yet Alfvén was moved to suggest, "...double layers in space should be classified as a new type of celestial object." He proposed, "...X-ray and gamma-ray bursts may be due to exploding double layers."
