[NewCandle] Measuring Half-Cell Charge

[Keith Nagel]

Hey Fred,

I don't see why not. Mix a little knox gelatin in there if you
want a thicker layer that sticks around. But even a misting ought to be enough.
That float ought to float a lot farther if it weren't filled
with ballast water (grin).

If it works at all, it does give one pause for thought. If you
encapsulated a HV supply in a metal sphere within a sphere,
would we see the same effect writ large? That would be amazing.
We really could get off the ground with something like that.

The key test at this point ( I've discussed this with Fred but
I don't know if I posted here ) is to double or triple the voltage
and see if the deflection increases proportionately. I would
suggest switching it synchronously with the period of the
pendulum, which would really amplify the signal, but I'm
afraid that electrodynamic effects may come into play and
confuse the results.

Hi Nick, Keith

Brass should be okay Nick, the work function is about 4.3 eVfor most
brass compositions.

Keith, I think a film over the suface isn't enough to do it, but it
would be worth a try
after a water-filled run.

Fred
