Free Energy Townsend Discharge
#Free-Energy ? Is it just me or do you think about chain reactions when reading the next few lines? What if you could insulation the 500v positive electrode, perhaps put it on outside of glass tube, perhaps using trapped electrostatic charge, like in wax? Remove the dischrage damping gases. Throw a few pieces of legal uranium ore into the tube to continously trigger of new gas avalanches. Can this be a positive gain energy sourece? >>A Geiger counter consists of a Geiger–Müller tube (the sensing element which detects the radiation) and the processing electronics, which displays the result. The Geiger–Müller tube is filled with an inert gas such as helium, neon, or argon at low pressure, to which a high voltage is applied. The tube briefly conducts electrical charge when a particle or photon of incident radiation makes the gas conductive by ionization. The ionization is considerably amplified within the tube by the Townsend discharge effect to produce an easily measured detec...
