Hi Arthur,

This is discussed in most Physics books. Unfortunately, not in the
terms you are expecting - so essentially trash to any invention
purporting to elevate this dust-buster energy to radiation status.

Let's say you want to pulsatic eject "something" from a surface. It
first has to exceed the work function of the material. This is pretty
hard for metals exposed to any environment other than vacuum, and even
more hard if insufficient voltage/temperature is applied.

Given this work function barrier, we would observe it as the cessation
of radiation from an antenna when potentials/temperatures dropped
below a critical level. Given further that many Ham operators collect
QSL cards from all over the planet on Watt power levels, there is no
evidence of this at all (as a Watt power level into a resonant dipole
is insufficient to supply the work function requirement).

Hence, it follows that pulsatic ejection is of no consequence beyond
the illusion of performance.
