Default Inductance of a solid disk

Any idea?

Thanks for your hels de Pierre VE2PID


What, exactly, do you mean by "the inductance of a solid disk"? How
do you connect to the disk? Are your connection points on opposite
ends of a diameter across the disk, or along its axis from the center
of one face to the center of the face on the opposite side -- or
perhaps some other connection? With a wire (formed into any shape),
it's reasonable to assume it's the inductance measured between the two
ends of the wire. For a disk, it's not obvious to me.

Cheers,
