I guess Art was implying sputtering. I actually posted the response sort
of "tongue in cheek".

It was my understanding sputtering requires a vacuum and high voltage.

It would appear by Art's response, they figured out all the ins and outs
of sputtering.

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.

No Chris I know you are not refering to the other use of a 8877 ie
spluttering
as with reed switch contacts. When a time varing current toapplied to
something
that creats radiation I am trying to deduce an alternative to the
thinking that
current can hurdle a capacitor and retain it's time varience.
This is why I view it in the context of adding a time varient to the
laws
of static particles where this action results in a tank circuit.
In that case the pulsatic release of energy serves as a time varient
that satisfies
the laws of Maxwell without the assumption that current can leap frog
a capacitor.
(Roy states that this is something he doesn't understand, as well as
avoiding
mechanical laws since they are irrelavent in the electrical world)
Whether I will be succesful in presenting a realistic alternative to
jumping
currents is moot . But after successfully produced an antenna, not a
system,
that exceeds that which follows printed theories I think I can be
forgiven in
not just accepting but to also pursue an understanding.
Certainly, I must not pursue the idea of distributed capacitance is
completly
devoid of ALL characteristics of a lumped capacitance as the computor
programmers would have us believe !
Food for thought for those without the herd mentallity who tend to
dismiss
the "unlikely" and make their fortune on only betting on polled
favorites at any
racing event....!
I do like the thought of levitation since it fits in the idea of a
Gaussian field
because then the escaping/ ejected particle meet the same conditions
that create
levitation when in the vicinity of a diamagnetic material ala a
radiator.
Question remains tho that particles are removed from the arbitary
field
possibly skin particles. This suggest then than that radiator surfaces
are
resealed on the surface from that provided from the external
capacitor.
All in all something worth while to ponder upon
