AB Electronic Tubes and Quasi-Superconductivity at Room Temperature
Alexander Bolonkin

TL;DR
The paper proposes a novel electronic tube design filled with a low-density, high-conductivity electron gas that exhibits near-superconductivity at room temperature, enabling revolutionary applications in energy transfer and aerospace.
Contribution
Introduces a new electronic tube concept with quasi-superconductivity at room temperature, expanding potential technological applications.
Findings
Electron gas in the tube has very high conductivity close to superconductivity.
The tube can be made very light with a thin insulating cover.
Potential applications include long-distance energy transfer and space propulsion.
Abstract
Author offers and researches a new idea - filling tubes by electronic gases. He shows: If the insulating envelope (cover) of the tube is charged positively, the electrons within the tube are not attracted to covering. Tube (as a whole) remains a neutral (uncharged) body. The electron gas in the tube has very low density and very high conductivity, close to superconductivity. If we take the density (pressure) of electron gas as equal to atmospheric pressure, the thickness of insulator film may be very small and the resulting tube is very light. Author shows the offered tubes can be applied to many technical fields. For example: (1) Transfer of energy over very long distance with very small electric losses. (2) Design of cheap high altitude electric lines without masts. (3) Transfer of energy from one continent to another continent through the ionosphere. (4) Transfer of a plasma beam…
