    I Question regarding Electrical Resistivity of metal vapors

    Thank you for your response. It is very helpful. I should have been more specific and called it plasma. You're right. When i said "tube" I meant that the tube would be made of material that is not electrically conductive. But considering the difficulty of keeping the gas in a conductive plasma...

    I Question regarding Electrical Resistivity of metal vapors

    Under the proper conditions (pressure, radiation) this metal vapor becomes electrically conductive.

    I Question regarding Electrical Resistivity of metal vapors

    You are right. I should have been more specific. Let's assume that under the proper conditions (Pressure, ionizing radiation, etc..) we have conduction. What is the highest electrical conductivity ever recoded? for both potassium and casesium vapor?

    I Question regarding Electrical Resistivity of metal vapors

    What is the electrical resistivity of Caesium vapor? What is the electrical resistivity of Potassium vapor? Sorry there are no support material or reference links for this. Just a question. The unit must be in Ohm-meter.

    B Question regarding Beta-voltaic cells and their efficiency

    I see. So basically, by using a "sensitive" material would improve efficiency and altering the speed of the incident electrons has no effect? Thank you.

    B Question regarding Beta-voltaic cells and their efficiency

    I googled through dozens of posts to find that claim. I don't recall exactly which one. It would be difficult for me to find the corresponding link.

    B Question regarding Beta-voltaic cells and their efficiency

    Why are beta voltaic cells so inefficient? Is it because the incident electrons are incredibly fast? According to a research, the incident electrons that get absorbed by the voltaic material are so fast that most of their energy is wasted as phonon and sonic energy. If we substantially slow down...
